HP P6000 Replication Solutions Manager CLI Reference (T3680-96071, June 2012)

2 Accessing the CLUI
You can access the CLUI using:
• Replication manager GUI
• Replication manager remote client
• Telnet
• User-written client
After you have accessed the CLUI, you can issue CLUI commands to perform local and remote
replication functions. For descriptions of the CLUI commands, see “CLUI commands” (page 16).
This chapter describes the ways you can start the CLUI.
Using the GUI
1. Start the HP P6000 Replication Solutions Manager GUI.
2. Log in with the HP P6000 Replication Solutions Manager user name and password.
3. Select Tools→Command Line User Interface.
The CLUI window opens. You can enter commands in the text box. Results from commands
appear below the text box.
Using the remote client
The remote client is component software that allows you to use the CLUI on the replication manager's
enabled hosts.
The remote client is installed automatically with the replication manager host agent.
Running the remote client
You can run the remote client using a jar file or a script file, located in the following directories:
• The jar file
directory:<host_agent's_install_base_directory>/cluiclient/classes/cluiclient.jar
• The script file directories:
<host_agent's_install_base_directory>/cluiclient/sbin/clui.sh and
<host_agent's_install_base_directory>/cluiclient/sbin/clui.bat
NOTE: A supported Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is required on the host from which the remote
client is run. See HP P6000 Enterprise Virtual Array Compatibility Reference for supported JRE
versions.
The commands to run the remote client are as follows:
• Jar file command: java –jar cluiclient.jar [switches] [clui command]
• Script file command: clui [switches] [clui command]
If you add the script file directory to your path environment variable, you can run the remote client
from any directory.
On an HP Tru64 UNIX host, you must add the JRE version to the path environment variable. For
example, if the JRE is installed in /opt/jre142/java, then add /opt/jre142/java to the
path environment variable. You only need to update this setting once, when you first install the
remote client.
