Using SMASH Command Line
Management
The command line management option described in this chapter is based on the System
Management Architecture for Server Hardware (SMASH) Command Line Protocol (CLP)
specification developed by the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF).
SMASH CLP is an alternative to the web interface or CLI. This chapter provides information
needed by users and administrators either to execute individual commands on the command line or
to create scripts to automate management of managed servers.
Commands or scripts can be executed over either a Telnet or Secure Shell (SSH) version 2 session
launched from a remote computer to the MergePoint SP manager. SSHv2 is recommended as a
more secure access method than Telnet because it is encrypted.
The commands can be used to do the following:
•
Perform some types of configuration, such as changing passwords on already-existing user
accounts, and changing configuration of already-added devices that are managed by the
MergePoint SP manager.
•
Perform tasks using service processor capabilities on managed servers, such as controlling
power, monitoring sensors and system events, and accessing the system console either at the
level of the server’s operating system or its BIOS.
The MergePoint SP manager is the industry’s first management appliance to implement a
command line management option that is based on and conforms to the CLP specification. This
chapter introduces the SMASH CLP specification and describes the subset of the SMASH CLP
commands that are provided on the MergePoint SP manager.
NOTE:
See http://www.dmtf.org for the SMASH/CLP specification and other details about the specification.This
chapter contains information from the Server Management Command Line Protocol Specification (SM CLP)
version 1.0.2, document number DSP0214, released by DMTF on February 25, 2007, © 2007 DMTF.
