ASMCLI Commands and Their Syntax The following section lists the ASMCLI commands. Examples shown in the following sections contain line breaks where long strings wrap. CAUTION: Do not insert line breaks in actual commands. ASMCLI -alert Email alerts can be controlled using the ASMCLI alert command. Enabling or disabling alerts through ASMCLI will automatically set the corresponding alerts in the GUI, and enabling or disabling alerts in the GUI will update the alert status when you view alerts through ASMCLI. See Alert Settings for a list of available alerts. You will not receive email alerts until you configure email settings. To configure email settings using ASMCLI, use the configureASM command. To configure email settings using the GUI, click View → Settings, and then click the Notifications tab. The delete, restore, mount, unmount, and selectiverestore commands have the -noemail parameter set by default. If alerts are enabled and you execute any of these commands using ASMCLI, you will not get an email notification when the operation completes unless you specify the -email parameter when you execute the command. Similarly, the smart and verify commands have the -email parameter set by default. If alerts are enabled and you execute either of these commands, you will automatically get an email notification when the operation completes. If you do not want to receive one, you must specify the -noemail parameter when you execute the command. If you specify the -email parameter and still do not receive an email notification, make sure that the associated alert is enabled. Command Syntax ASMCLI -alert -category={"category_name"|"category_abbreviation"} -enable={"alert_ID"} -disable={"alert_ID"} -enableall={"category_name"|"category_abbreviation"} -disableall={"category_name"|"category_abbreviation"} The value of alert_ID is the numerical value assigned to each alert.
