HP Systems Insight Manager 7.0 Command Line Interface Guide

NOTE: Even though the command executed on machine2.myco.com failed (exit code of 1),
mxexec considers it complete because the command executed without any errors associated with
mxexec or the agent on machine2.myco.com. There is no reliable way to determine if a failure
has occurred based solely upon the return value of the command.
Limitations
This command can only be run on the CMS.
