HP-UX Reference (11i v2 07/12) - 1M System Administration Commands A-M (vol 3)

c
cplxmodify(1M) cplxmodify(1M)
IPaddress|hostname specifies the IP address or hostname of the target partition (
-u)or
complex (
-g).
-g [passwd] Allows access to the complex specified by the
-h option. The accessed complex is then con-
sidered the target complex. Access is via the service processor’s LAN port.
The
-h option is required if this option is used.
passwd specifies the IPMI password of the service processor. If this field is omitted, the
command prompts for the password.
If an error is reported when you attempt to connect using this option, check to see that
IPMI LAN access has not been disabled on the remote service processor. Access to the
complex via IPMI over LAN can be enabled or disabled by logging on to the service proces-
sor and using the SA command from the Command Menu.
The -u and -g options are mutually exclusive.
SECURITY WARNING: Specifying the password directly on the command line may pose a
security risk in your environment. The
ps
or other related commands can be invoked in
such a way as to display the command line of a process. In this situation, any authenti-
cated 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.
Note: Specifying passwd on the command line will not be supported in future releases.
RETURN VALUE
The
cplxmodify command exits with one of the following values:
0 Successful completion.
1 Error condition occurred.
EXAMPLES
Change the name of the local complex to "Basingstoke".
cplxmodify -N Basingstoke
Change the name of a remote complex to "Ploverleigh". The command prompts for the password.
cplxmodify -N Ploverleigh -g -h RemoteComplex
WARNINGS
HP-UX 11i Version 2 is the last HP-UX release on which passing passwd for the
-u and -g options is sup-
ported. Specifying passwd on the command line will not be supported in future releases. The command
will prompt for the password.
DEPENDENCIES
This command uses the Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) product and certain of its
configuration settings. If you encounter connection errors when using the
-u option, check that the follow-
ing two conditions are satisfied:
• Use the
cimconfig command (see cimconfig(1M) in the WBEM product documentation) to verify (and
correct if necessary) the setting of the following two variables:
• enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess=true
• enableHttpsConnection=true
• You must have appended the target partition’s digital certificate to the local partition’s Trust Store file.
For the nPartition commands, the Trust Store file is /var/opt/wbem/client.pem
.
Note: You must have appended the target partition’s digital certificate to the local partition’s Trust
Store file. For the npartition commands, the Trust Store file is
/var/opt/wbem/client.pem
.
This file is used by the commands that come with WBEM installation. Hence, if the commands that
come with the WBEM installation trust a target partition, then npartition commands will also trust the
target partition.
Refer to the WBEM documents specified in the SEE ALSO section below for further information.
