Command Reference Guide

The command does not check whether the specified command device or system
exist, it only checks if the optional instance number specified is within the correct
range and if the command device together with the instance number is not already
assigned to be used by some other system. If the checks fail, the command fails
with an error message.
-cm -remove all
Removes the information about all command devices from the XPDB.
-cm -remove serial [{CU:LDEV | LDEV} [hostname]]
If only the serial argument is specified, the command removes the information
about command devices within a specific HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP
identified by the serial number of this HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP (serial)
from the XPDB.
If the CU:LDEV | LDEV and optionally hostname arguments are specified as
well, the command removes the information about the command device identified
by the serial number of the HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP (serial), serial
number of command device in the hexadecimal or decimal format (CU:LDEV or
LDEV) and optionally by the hostname of the system (hostname).
When removing the information about the command device without specifying
the system (hostname), the command deletes all entries for the specified
command device, regardless of the system(s) assigned to it.
-cm -list
Lists all command devices in the XPDB.
EXAMPLES
1. To set or change the XP LDEV exclude file:
a.) Use the following command on the application or backup system:
omnidbxp -exclude -get c:\tmp\filename.txt
This command reads the XP LDEV exclude file from the Cell Manager and saves
it in the “c:\tmp\filename.txt” file.
b.) Edit the c:\tmp\filename.txt file and save it when you are done editing.
c.) Use the following command on the application or backup system:
This command reads the contents of the “c:\tmp\filename.txt”, checks its syntax
and if the syntax is correct, copies the file to its position on the Cell Manager.
omnidbxp -exclude -put c:\tmp\filename.txt
2. To check whether the LDEV identified by the serial number “12345” and LDEV
number “2864” is specified in the XP LDEV exclude file, execute the following
