CLI Standalone

There is a seperate product "UpdateManagerCLI" that is deliberately meant
for environments where there is no ServerView Operations Manager.

But because there is no SVOM there is one major restriction, when running
under Linux and intending to update a management blade or connection
blade:

As documented in description of the call parameters (Y option) the Inventory
of the management blade or connection blade must exist as a file (Ver-
sionView.sav) and has to be passed via the Y option.

But since there is no SVOM there is no Inventory-Service running and thus
no Inventory file is built on the system.

Thus without providing the Inventory file via other means it is not possible to
update the management blade / connection blade under Linux.

citfs.bat (batch job)

This tool is programmed for Windows command line to add a new server to
the ServerList and update this server to the latest versions of BIOS, firmware
and drivers. Afterwards the new servers can be administered as usual by the
ServerView GUI.

Requirements

If the ServerView update agent is configured with security (AccountCheck),
a user group must be specified (see

"Prerequisites on managed servers" on

page 12

and

"Prerequisites on the Central Management Station (CMS)" on

page 17

).

Usage of the tool

The tool CITFS (CLI Integration Tool For ServerView) is located on the fol-
lowing directory:
