NAME
cplxmodify - modify an attribute of a system complex
SYNOPSIS
cplxmodify [-N ComplexName]
[ -u username:[passwd]
-h IPaddress|hostname
|
-g [passwd] -h IPaddress|hostname ]
DESCRIPTION
The
cplxmodify command modifies attributes of the complex of a partitionable system. The command
is the equivalent, at the complex level, of the
parmodify command, which modifies attributes of an
nPartition.
The complex to be modified defaults to the local complex, the one on which the command is run. A remote
complex can be identified by specifying either the
-u or -g option in combination with the -h option.
Root permission is required to run this command on the local partition. If the
-u or -g option is used to
access a remote partition or complex, root permission is not required on the local system, and the local
system need not exist on an nPartition. If the
-u option is specified, username on the remote host must
have root permission or the command will fail.
By the nature of its operation, this command can modify the configuration of its target complex. Opera-
tion can be affected by the state of the target complex’s nPartition Configuration Privilege. If this
privilege is unrestricted (the default), or the complex is accessed using the
-g option, all operations are
allowed. Otherwise the command fails. The -g option is unaffected by the state of the nPartition
Configuration Privilege. Note: This privilege state can only be changed at the service processor’s Com-
mand menu.
Please refer to the HP System Partitions Guide for a description of the partition management terms used
in this man page.
Options and Arguments
cplxmodify recognizes the following command line options and arguments:
-N ComplexName
Changes the name of the target complex to ComplexName. This option may also be used
to name a complex for the first time.
The characters which can appear in a valid complex name are
a-z, A
-Z, 0-9, - (dash), _
(underscore), " " (space) and . (period). If the complex name includes space, then the
name should be enclosed within double quotes. The complex name can have a maximum
of 20 characters.
-u username:[passwd]
Specifies the required authorization to access a partition other than the local system (but
can also be used as a loopback access to the local partition). The complex to be modified
is the one in which this target partition resides.
The
-h option is required if this option is used.
username specifies a configured user name on the target partition.
passwd specifies the password associated with the username. If this field is empty, the
command prompts for the password.
Note: This command is a Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) Client Applica-
tion. The
-u option accesses the target partition using a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) con-
nection. If errors are reported, check that the conditions described in the DEPENDEN-
CIES section are satisfied.
SECURITY WARNING: Specifying the password directly on the command line may pose
a security risk in your environment. The ps(1) or other related commands can be
invoked in such a way as to display the command line of a process. In this situation, any
authenticated user on the system can potentially see the password while the process is
executing. Hence, it is highly recommended not to specify the password on the command
line, and instead allow the command to prompt for the password.
-h IPaddress|hostname
This option should only be used in combination with either the -u or -g option.
