3.6.0 Matrix Server Command Reference (5697-7083, December 2007)

Chapter 2: Matrix Server Commands 4

.exe files

The remainder of this chapter describes some of the executable commands

included in the bin and tools directories. Some of these commands are useful

for matrix administration. Other commands are used internally by Matrix

Server or should be run only at the request of HP personnel when diagnosing

problems on your system.

NOTE: Commands not documented in this chapter are Matrix Server

processes, commands used internally by Matrix Server, or commands

for use by HP personnel.

Permissions for Matrix Server binary files

By default, the machine local Administrators group has full cluster rights and

can run all Matrix Server binaries. It is expected that users who do not belong

to the Administrators group but need to perform matrix management tasks

will be assigned to the appropriate roles via the Matrix Server Role-Based

Security feature described in the PolyServe Matrix Server Administration Guide.

These users should use the PolyServe Management Console or mx commands

instead of running the binaries directly.

The machine local Users group has read-only and execute permission to run

the UI-related binaries in the \bin directory. For example, members of this

group can start the PolyServe Management Console and can run mx

commands that display status.
