Use HBAnyware Command-Line Interface (Windows)

The CLI (command-line interface) Client component of HBAnyware provides access to the capabilities of the Remote Management library from a console command prompt. This component is intended for use in scripted operations from within shell scripts, batch files, or the specific platform equivalent.

Note HBAnyware must be running on all remote hosts that are to be discovered and managed.

Remote capabilities of HBAnyware are subject to fabric zoning configuration. Remote hosts to be discovered and managed by HBAnyware must be in the same zone.
 

Using the CLI Client

The CLI Client is a console application named HBACMD.EXE. Each time you run this application from the command line, a single operation is performed.

The first parameter of this command is the requested operation. When the specified operation is completed, the command prompt is displayed. Most operations retrieve information about an entity on the SAN and display that information on the console.

Most of the CLI Client commands require one or more additional parameters that specify the nature of the command. A parameter used by many HBACMD commands specifies the World Wide Node Name of the host bus adapter (HBA) that is the target of the command. For example, the following command displays the port attributes for the HBA with the specified World Wide Node Name:

c:\>hbacmd portattrib 10:00:00:00:c9:20:20:20

HbaCmd can be run in out-of-band mode by making the first argument                                   ‘h=<host>’. For example:

c:\>hbacmd h=cp-hp5670 listhbas

c:\>hbacmd h=138.239.91.121 listhbas
