HP Systems Insight Manager 5.3 Command Line Interface reference guide

Add a group.
-m
Modify a group.
-r
Remove a group.
-l d
Display a detailed screen-viewable list of system group information.
-l f
Display a file-formatted list of system group information (see mxngroup(4) ).
-l m
Display the member systems of the system group.
-l n
Display the names of the system groups.
-f filename
Specify the path and name of the input file for an add, modify, or remove operation.
-g groupname
Specify the name of the group to be added, modified, removed, or listed.
System group names must be 80 characters or less, and must start with an alphabetic
character. After the first character, system group names can contain alphanumeric,
underscore (_), dash (-), period (.), and embedded blank characters.
-n member
When used with -a or -m, this option specifies the complete membership of an added or
modified group. When used in a list command (-l), this option indicates that the system
groups to be listed contain the specified members.
-d description
Specify the group description.
-b encoding
Specify the character encoding when used with -l f.
-u [t|f]
Update the system group members based on the collection. This option can be used only
in conjunction with -m as follows: -m -g groupname -u. The [t|f] parameters
enable or disable the automatic update feature. If auto-update is enabled, system group
members are automatically updated in the background on a periodic basis. To enable
auto-update, use the -ut syntax. To disable auto-update, use -uf.
NOTE: When duplicate options are specified, the last instance of the option is used. For example, if you
enter -f file1 -f file2, mxauth uses file2.
External influences
For HP-UX or Linux, LANG determines the default encoding that the system will use to output XML data if no
encoding is specified on the command line. If LANG is not specified or null, or LANG does not correspond
to a recognized encoding, it defaults to C (see lang (5)). In this case, use the -b option to specify the
encoding of the XML data.
