HP Systems Insight Manager 7.0 Command Line Interface Guide
double quote characters, each double quote character must be preceded by the
backslash character. This option is used with -c.
-f toolparmsfile
Specify the parameter data for a tool that requires user parameters. The tool
parameters for -f are provided in a specified XML file that contains the tool
parameters. This option is used with -c. (Create task)or –r (remove task).
-o taskowner
Specify a task owner for the new task that will be created. This optional value can
be used with the create task (-c) command. If no owner is specified, the currently
logged in user is assigned as the task owner.
-i timefiltername
Specify an existing time filter to associate with the task that will be created. This
optional value can be used with the create task (-c) command. If no time filter name
is specified, the new task will be created with no associated time filter.
-b encoding
Specify the character encoding of an XML file when used with -lf.
The schedule parameterized string format
When creating a new task on the command line with -c, the task type/schedule information is
required as a parameterized data string, and is preceded by the -w option character.
The schedule parameterized string has the general format shown below, and must begin with the
T (type) character. The parameterized string must not contain spaces, and the period character is
used as a parameter separator.
-w T<tasktype>.I<intervaltype>.P<periodic>.D<day|date>.M<time>
The T parameter signifies the task type and is required in all type/schedule parameterized strings.
Valid [tasktype] values are add, remove, manual or schedule. These task type values determine
what type source triggers the task to run.
• Tadd. Task runs when systems or events meet the list criteria.
• Tremove. Task runs when systems or events no longer meet the list criteria.
• Tmanual. Task runs when manually invoked.
• Tschedule. Task runs according to a periodic/day/time schedule.
The I parameter signifies the interval type and is required when the T task type value is schedule.
Valid intervaltype values are minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, daily, or runonce.
• Tschedule.Iminutes. Task runs every x minutes.
• Tschedule.Ihours. Task runs every x hours.
• Tschedule.Iweeks. Task runs every x weeks at specified day/time.
• Tschedule.Imonths. Task runs every x months at specified day/time.
• Tschedule.Idaily. Task runs once a day at specified time.
• Tschedule.Irunonce. Task runs once at specified date/time.
The P parameter signifies the periodic interval (how often the task will run) and is required when
the T task type value is schedule. Valid periodic values (n) are any numeric values greater
than zero. For example: Tschedule.Iminutes.Pn.
The D parameter can signify a day or date value and is required when the T task type value is
schedule and the I interval type is weeks, months or runonce. Valid day|date values depend
on the specified interval type. If the interval type is weeks, the valid day values are Sunday, Monday,
