HP Systems Insight Manager 7.2 Command Line Interface Guide

Files
Server:
• /etc/opt/mx/config/sshtools/.dtfSshKey.pub
• /etc/opt/mx/config/sshtools/known_hosts
Managed node:
• ~/.ssh/.<cms_name>.dtfSshKey.pub
• ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2
• ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2.bak
Example 1
To copy the SSH-generated public key from the CMS to the node node1 with the username root
and password password, enter mxagentconfig -a -n node1 -u root -p password.
Example 2
To remove the host from the known host list but still be able to run the SSH commands for an hour
after the last SSH command was executed, enter mxagentconfig –r –n node name. This
command is dependent on the following settings under Options→Security→Credentials→Trusted
Systems.
• The Central Management Server will save the SSH host key the first time an SSH connection
is made.
This option adds the unknown host to the known host list automatically the first time an SSH
connection is made.
• The Central Management Server server will accept an SSH connection with any host key, even
if not in the list below.
This option always adds the unknown host to the known host list automatically when SSH
connection made.
• The Central Management Server server will accept an SSH connection only if the host key is
in list below.
This option never adds the unknown host to the known host list automatically. You must add
known host explicitly using the mxagentconfig.
If you want HP SIM to not add the host key automatically, the third option must be selected from
above options. HP SIM maintains an SSH connection pool, so that the already establish connection
is valid for 1 hour. This means all SSH commands will work for next 1 hour from the last time SSH
connection used.
Example 3
The following command is used to configure the embedded remote support through the IRS server
mxagentconfig -A [-n hostname] -u login [-p password] -M IRS -U IRS URL -V IRS Port
Example 4
The following command is used to disable the ERS configuration.
mxagentconfig -A [-n hostname] -u login [- p <password>] -M DISABLE
mxagentconfig 19
