On a Windows CMS, if you are not a member of the local Administrators group, add the options –-user
username and --pass password when running any of the listed CLI commands. For example, to list
information about one or more authorizations in compact or table form, enter mxauth [-lt] ––user
username ––pass password.
On a Linux or HP-UX CMS, you can add the options ––user username and ––pass password to
a command to run it under a different account from the one that is signed-in. For example, if you have
operator rights, and you want to remove multiple authorizations by specifying an input file, which requires
administrative rights, enter mxauth -a|r -f filename ––user username ––pass password
and use the sign-in information of a administrative rights user.
Quotation marks
When you enter a CLI command with a string that includes spaces or special characters, you must enclose
the string in quotation marks. For example: mxreport -l -x report -n "Inventory - Servers".
