For example, rswcli -l. • When specifying parameters, use a double dash with both full and abbreviated parameter names. For example, --group-name or -- gn. • Use of the equal sign (=) to specify a value to parameters is optional. For example, --member-name=eqlgroup1 and --member- name eqlgroup1 are equivalent. • Brackets ([]) indicate that a parameter or argument is optional. • Several parameters are mutually exclusive and specifying more than one of these parameters causes the command to fail.

For information, see Bash Command Completion. • To access help on any RSWCLI subcommand, use the --help or -h parameter after specifying the subcommand. For example, rswcli --discover --help. Configuration - Discovering a PS Series Array Use the rswcli --discover (or rswcli -d) command for a list of uninitialized PS Series array serial numbers.

Remote Setup Wizard Command Line
Interface
The Remote Setup Wizard Command Line Interface (RSWCLI) provides setup commands that you can execute at the Linux command
prompt and a command line interface where you can perform all required setup actions.
Topics:
General Command Syntax for the RSWCLI
Configuration — Discovering a PS Series Array
Initializing a PS Series Array
Managing Access to a PS Series Group
Listing Accessible Groups
Modifying Access to a Group
Removing Host Access to a Group
Configuring Multipath I/O
General Command Syntax for the RSWCLI
The general RSWCLI command syntax is as follows:
# rswcli --subcommand | -abbreviated_subcommand [--parameter|
--abbreviated_parameter [
argument
]]
The following rules apply:
When spelling out the full subcommand, prefix with a double dash (--). For example,
rswcli --list-group
.
Prefix abbreviated subcommands with a dash (
). For example,
rswcli -l
.
When specifying parameters, use a double dash with both full and abbreviated parameter names. For example,
--group-name
or
--
gn
.
Use of the equal sign (=) to specify a value to parameters is optional. For example,
--member-name=eqlgroup1
and
--member-
name eqlgroup1
are equivalent.
Brackets ([]) indicate that a parameter or argument is optional.
Several parameters are mutually exclusive and specifying more than one of these parameters causes the command to fail. The
command parser ignores any redundant parameters.
To display all applicable parameters, enter an entire subcommand followed by a tab.
To display a list of applicable options, enter part of any subcommand or parameter followed by two tabs. For information, see
Bash
Command Completion
.
To access help on any RSWCLI subcommand, use the
--help
or
-h
parameter after specifying the subcommand. For example,
rswcli --discover --help
.
Configuration — Discovering a PS Series Array
Use the
rswcli --discover
(or
rswcli -d
) command for a list of uninitialized PS Series array serial numbers.
