Primary CLI Commands
The commands that carry out the functions of Server Administrator are:
• omconfig
• omdiag
• omhelp
• omreport
The omconfig command writes values that you assign to an object's properties. You can specify values for
warning thresholds on components or prescribe what action your system is to take when a certain
warning or failure event occurs. You can also use the omconfig command to assign specific values to your
system's asset information parameters, such as the purchase price of the system, the system's asset tag, or
the system's location.
The omdiag command runs diagnostic tests against system hardware to isolate problems.
The omhelp command displays short text help for CLI commands. The shorthand equivalent of omhelp
is the command for which you want help followed by -?. For example, to display help for the omreport
command, type one of the following commands:
omhelp omreport
omreport -?
The omreport command produces reports of your system’s management information.
NOTE: For an overall summary of CLI commands, type omhelp.
Table 1-1 lists the primary CLI commands used by Server Administrator. This guide contains a section
