IBM DS8000 - Manual (Page 259)

Chapter 11. DS CLI 237
Figure 11-3 Command flow for the DS6000
For the DS6000, it is possible to install a second network interface card within the DS Storage
Manager PC. This would allow you to connect it to two separate switches for improved
redundancy.
ESS CLI co-existence
If co-existence with the ESS CS CLI is required, then both the DS CLI and the ESS CLI will
have to be installed on the same open systems host, as shown in Figure 11-4 on page 238.
Each CLI installs into a separate directory. Depending on how the scripts are written, ESS CLI
and DS CLI commands could be issued in the same script.
