Examples

Example 1

This example imports the file update1.zip. The file must be present on the OMS host. In a multiple OMS setup, any OMS can process the request, so the file should be accessible from the OMS processing the request. This usually means that the file must be kept on a shared location accessible from all OMSes.

emcli import_update 
        -file="/u01/common/update1.zip" 
        -omslocal

Example 2

This example imports the file update1.zip that is present on the host host1.example.com. The host must be a managed host target in Enterprise Manager, and the Management Agent on this host must be up and running. The preferred unprivileged credentials for host host1.example.com are used to retrieve the remote file.

emcli import_update 
        -file="/u01/common/update1.zip" 
        -host="host1.example.com" 
        -credential_set_name="HostCredsNormal"
