Using the Storage Management
Service
The Storage Management command line interface (CLI) enables you to
perform reporting, configuration, and management functions of Storage
Management from an operating system command shell. The Storage
Management CLI also enables you to script command sequences.
The Storage Management CLI provides expanded options for the Dell
OpenManage Server Administrator omreport and omconfig commands. For
more information, see the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Installation
