mxtool
Description
The mxtool enables you to add, list, modify or remove tools.
• mxtool -a -f filename
This command enables you to add tools. Tool information is provided in a tool definition file
(see mxtool(4)) that enables you to add one or more tools.
If you are an administrative rights user (see mxuser(1)), HP SIM will accept the owner value
specified for a tool in the tool definition file. If an owner is not specified, the tool is enabled
in all toolboxes that contain it.
If you are not an administrative rights user, HP SIM ignores the owner specification, sets the
tool's owner field to your user ID, ignores the value of the toolbox enabled flag, and enables
only the All Tools toolbox.
When the owner field is specified, HP SIM ignores the toolbox enabled flag and disables the
tool in all of the specified toolboxes with the exception of All Tools. To enable the tool in all
of the specified toolboxes, an administrative rights user must modify the tool's definition by
removing the owner field from the tool. By default, when an administrative rights user removes
the owner field, the toolbox enabled flag is set to true. An administrative rights user can set
the toolbox enabled flag to false to explicitly disable the tool in all toolboxes except All Tools.
During an add operation, HP SIM adds only tools whose names do not reference existing
tools. If a duplicate tool is detected, HP SIM will notify you and continue to add all non-duplicate
