Example 3 - Adaptive CLI with Reboot

shows you how to make an Adaptive CLI that requires

rebooting the target device(s).

Example 4 - Adaptive CLI To Extract Upload/Download Speeds

demonstrates Adaptive CLI

that extracts information from the target device, then displays the results on a dashboard.

Example 5: Monitor Text Values

demonstrates using and Adaptive CLI configured to monitor

attributes with strings that indicate their status.

Some devices do not respond to commands unless they are in the correct state. For example, some

Dell devices must not be in “Simple” mode to respond to Adaptive CLIs. Take account of this as

you create Adaptive CLIs.

Example 1 - Existing Show Run

Adaptive CLI Manager has pre-seeded tasks and diagnostic commands based upon the drivers

you have installed. For example: the

Cisco 'show protocols'

command. Right-click and Select

Edit

to view and/or alter this Adaptive CLI.

Click the

Edit

icon next to the Cisco script. The

Scripts

tab in this editor appears above,

displaying the

show protocols

command to be sent target devices. Notice (in the upper

right corner) that this Adaptive CLI filters so it applies to all Cisco devices excluding PIX.

Close the editor(s), and select this Adaptive CLI.

Right-click to

Execute,

and select the target equipment for this run in the next screen. The

screen that appears is a standard OpenManage Network Manager equipment selector. The

Adaptive CLI is valid only on devices that pass the Target Filter mentioned in step 2, but the

selection here narrows the target devices for the Adaptive CLI.
