HP Systems Insight Manager 6.0 Command Line Interface Guide

the listing options of HP SIM commands. In addition to listing, limited configuration rights users can
create tools with mxtool (1M).
If you do not specify full rights or CMSSecurity rights for a new user or user group, the default setting
is limited configuration rights. Additionally, this command enables a full rights user or CMSSecurity
rights user to assign the authorizations of an existing user or group to the new user or group. For more
information about authorizations, see mxauth(1M).
mxuser -a -f filename and mxuser -a -gf -f filename allow you to add multiple users
and user groups by specifying a file containing the required information. The file must be formatted in
the XML format defined for HP SIM users. See mxuser(4) for more information.
• mxuser -m username [-d description ] [-p
full|CMSSecurity|limited|none|+T|-T]
mxuser -m -g usergroupname [-d description ] [-p
full|CMSSecurity|limited|none|+T|-T]
mxuser -m -f filename
mxuser -m -gf -f filename
These commands enable a full rights or CMSSecurity rights user to modify an existing user or group
description, and to reassign rights to an existing user or group. The description replaces the existing
description for the user or group. Any modification of the user or group authorizations must be made
with mxauth (1M). Users or groups to be modified can be specified on the command line or in an
XML file. Use an XML file to modify multiple users or groups at the same time. See mxuser(4) for
more information.
• mxuser -r username
mxuser -r -g usergroupname
mxuser -r -f filename
mxuser -r -gf -f filename
These commands enable full rights or CMSSecurity rights users to remove specified users or user groups.
This form of the command can only remove one user or group at a time. All authorizations for the
specified user or group are removed. HP SIM must have at least one an administrative rights user, so
the last administrative rights user cannot be removed. To remove more than one user or group at a
time, use -f filename to specify an input file. See mxuser(4) for more information.
• mxuser [-l d|f|n|t] [ username... ]
This command lists HP SIM user information. Specifying no options provides a list of user names with
no other information. This listing is the same as the -l n option. The -l d option provides a detailed
screen-viewable list of the users. The -l f option provides the list in an XML file. The output of the XML
file is valid input for -f. The -l t option provides a tabular list of users with detailed information.
• mxuser [-l dg|fg|ng|tg] [ usergroupname... ]
This command lists user group information. Specifying no options provides a list of user group names
with no other information. This listing is the same as the -l option with the ng qualifier. The -l
option with the dg qualifier provides a detailed screen-viewable list. The -l option with the fg qualifier
provides the list in an XML file. The output of the XML file is valid input for -fg. The -l option with
the tg qualifier provides a tabular listing of users with detailed information.
• mxuser -lf [-b encoding ] [ username... ]
This command saves user information to an XML file.
Optionally, you can specify the character encoding of the XML file. The value for the character encoding
must match a valid character encoding. If no encoding is specified, the system attempts to write the file
in the encoding currently defined on the system. See http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets
for the list of valid character sets.
