1 About the CLI The command line interface (CLI) provides a comprehensive set of commands for managing the FluidFS cluster. The CLI allows you to perform the same management operations as the FluidFS NAS Manager WebUI, as well as operations that can be performed only from the CLI. CLI Menus CLI commands are organized using menus and submenus. Menus group related CLI commands. The following table lists the CLI menus that are available.
Menu Submenus Description • • • sessions; and monitor performance.
Menu Submenus • • • Description system-configuration-state background-operations EM – recipients NAS-volumes • list • – capacity-over-time – edit – clone NAS-pool • – configuration – capacity-overtime NFS-exports • – add-acl – delete-acl – general-settings CIFS-shares • – home-share – general-settings quota Use this menu to manage NAS volumes, clone volumes, NFS exports, CIFS shares, quota rules, snapshots, replication, and configuration backups; and monitor quota usage.
Where: • CLI> — The command prompt where you type the command • — The name of the main menu • —The name of one or more submenus (separated with a space). Certain menus have multiple levels of submenus. • — The name of the command that you want to execute • — The arguments (separated with a space) that you must enter with the command to execute the command successfully.
Enter a Command by Navigating One Menu at a Time Enter a command by navigating through the CLI one menu at a time. 1. Type the
Getting Help on the CLI The CLI provides online help for menus, commands, arguments, and options. At any time while using the CLI, you can type help to see more information about the available menus, commands, arguments, and options.
3. Type the FluidFS cluster administrator password at the ’s password prompt. The default password is Stor@ge!. You are logged on to the CLI and a Welcome window is displayed, listing the installed FluidFS version and the available commands in the main menu. Connect to the FluidFS Cluster CLI Through SSH Using a Password Log on to the CLI through SSH to manage the FluidFS cluster. 1. Use either of the following options: – Using an SSH client, connect to a client VIP.

CLI Procedures 3 Installing a FluidFS Cluster Using the CLI Use this procedure to install a FluidFS cluster using the CLI. The recommended way to deploy a FluidFS cluster is to use the FluidFS NAS Manager WebUI. This procedure should be performed only by Dell Technical Support Services. 1. Log on to the CLI on NAS controller 0 (located on the left as viewed from the back) using a VGA console as described in Accessing the CLI. 2.
8. After the previous command completes, configure the iSCSI IP addresses. To configure iSCSI IP addresses run the following command: hardware fabrics iSCSI add For example: hardware fabrics iSCSI add eth30 255.255.0.0 192.11.18.10,192.11.18.11 (This adds the first SAN subnet containing all the eth30 ports.) hardware fabrics iSCSI-portals add-IPv4 For example: hardware fabrics iSCSI-portals add-IPv4 192.11.18.
4. Repeat Step 3 for additional client subnets. For example: networking subnets edit 10.10.76.0 255.255.252.0 -PrivateIPs 10.10.78.121,10.10.78.122,10.10.78.123,10.10.78.124 -PublicIPs 10.10.78.125,10.10.78.126 5. (iSCSI only) Configure additional IP addresses for the iSCSI SAN subnets. hardware fabrics iscsi edit -ControllersIPs For example: hardware fabrics iscsi edit SANb -ControllersIPs 192.11.18.14,192.11.18.15,192.11.18.16,192.11.18.
