RHPCTL Overview

RHPCTL is a command-line utility with which you perform Oracle Fleet Patching and Provisioning operations and manage Oracle Fleet Patching and Provisioning Servers and Clients.

RHPCTL uses the following syntax:

rhpctl command object [parameters]

In RHPCTL syntax:

• command is a verb such as add, delete, or query

• object (also known as a noun) is the target or object on which RHPCTL performs the command, such as client or image.

• parameters extend the use of a preceding command combination to include additional parameters for the command. Specify parameters as -keyword value. If the value field contains a comma-delimited list, then do not use spaces between the items in the list.

You can use RHPCTL commands to perform several Oracle Fleet Patching and Provisioning operations, including:

• Oracle Fleet Patching and Provisioning Client operations, such as creating an Oracle Fleet Patching and Provisioning Client configuration.

• Role operations, such as adding and deleting roles, and granting and revoking roles for users.

• Site operations, such as obtaining configuration information for Oracle Fleet Patching and Provisioning Servers.

• Image operations, such as adding, deleting, and importing images.
