credentials for that node, regardless of protocol, are listed. If the node and protocol options
are used together, the node will be displayed only if credentials for the specified protocol
exist.

used with -f or -p and -c.
-r
Remove credentials from the HP SIM credentials database. This option must be used
with -f or -p.

-n options.
-f filename

-p protocol
Specify a protocol such as WBEM or SNMP. Credentials of the specified type are
displayed on the screen. Also used to specify VME protocols, such as vCenter,
scvmm, rhevm in the format vme:protocolThis option is used with -a, -r, and
-l. Standard HP SIM protocols are "snmp", "wbem", "ws-man", "ssh" and
"sign-in". The mxnodesecurity command interprets "wsman" or "ws-man" on the
command line as the same protocol. The mxnodesecurity command interprets
"signin" or "sign-in" on the command line as the same protocol. A "sign-in"
credential is a protocol independent credential used to sign into the managed
system. The mxnodesecurity command also accepts any name for a protocol name.

with -a -p wbem -a -p vme:protocol.

Be careful when entering passwords in the CLI. This makes them available in the command history,
the process list during execution, and the audit log if the command is executed as part of a task.
Be sure to clear your command history or use alternate methods for specifying passwords, for
example, a prompt or input file.

This option is used with -a -p snmp.
