Supported By

Linux, Solaris, and Windows

Note: Users with “root” or “Administrator” privileges on the local machine will retain

full OCM CLI configuration capability without the use of credentials (local

machine only).

Device Management Using the Secure Management
Interface

To run the HbaCmd CLI client application when the Secure Management feature is

enabled, each invocation must include a user name and password. The user name and

password options are added to the existing HbaCmd command in a similar fashion as

is currently done for CIM commands, except the option is replaced by the

option (to distinguish it from a CIM command). For example:

Without Secure Management (or if running as “root” or “Administrator”):

hbacmd

With Secure Management (as non-Root or non-Administrator User):

hbacmd
