Using the Server Administrator Command Line
Interface
The Server Administrator command line interface (CLI) allows users to
perform essential systems management tasks from the operating system
command prompt of a monitored system.
In many cases, the CLI allows a user with a very well-defined task in mind to
rapidly retrieve information about the system. Using CLI commands,
for example, administrators can write batch programs or scripts to execute at
specific times. When these programs execute, they can capture reports on
components of interest, such as fan RPMs. With additional scripting,
the CLI can be used to capture data during periods of high system usage to
compare with the same measurements at times of low system usage.
