HP StorageWorks P9000 Tiered Storage Manager Software 7.1 CLI Reference Guide (TB585-96011, May 2011)
2 Preparations for executing the CLI
This chapter explains what must be done before starting up the CLI. More specifically, this chapter
explains how to set up the CLI and an environment for the CLI.
Setting up the CLI
You can operate the CLI on both a management server and a management client. This section describes
how to set up the CLI on a management client.
When you execute commands on the management server, you do not need to set up the CLI. The CLI
will be set up and ready to go after Tiered Storage Manager software is installed on the management
server.
Setting up the CLI on a Windows system
This section describes how to set up the CLI when the management client OS is Windows.
Before starting the setup, make sure that the following conditions are satisfied:
• JRE must be installed.
• At least 100 MB of unused capacity must exist on the drive that the OS is installed on.
• The environment allows .zip files to be unzipped.
• You are logged on as a user with Administrator permissions for the system drive, and for whom
the following accesses are allowed:
- Creating files and writing data
- Creating folders and adding data
To set up the CLI:
1. Log on to the management client as a user who is a member of the Administrators group.
2. Use FTP or some sort of external storage media to transfer the setup file from the management
server of Tiered Storage Manager software to the management client.
You can transfer the setup file to any location.
The CLI setup file is stored in the following folder or directory on the management server:
If the management server OS is Windows:
installation-folder-of-the-Tiered-Storage-Manager-server\Dist\
If the management server OS is Linux:
installation-directory-of-the-Tiered-Storage-Manager-server/Dist/
The setup file name is shown below.
