HP Systems Insight Manager 7.2 Command Line Interface Guide

To add a new password, enter:
# mxpassword –a –x key1=value1 [–x key2=value ¦]
# mxpassword –a –f file
• The –x option assigns password value to password key name key. There can be multiple key
and value pairs provided to the add command.
• The –f option adds the passwords defined in the file. This is a more secure option because
the passwords are not available for viewing on the terminal screen, or in the command line
history.
To modify an existing password, enter:
# mxpassword –m –x key1=newvalue [–x key2=newvalue ¦]
To remove existing passwords, enter:
# mxpassword –r –x key1 [–x key2 â ¦]
To list existing passwords, enter:
# mxpassword –l [–x key ¦]
If you provide specific keys using the –x option, the passwords for those keys display. Otherwise,
all known passwords appear. The mxpassword command uses the follow options:
• The –g option launches a GUI.
• The –c option checks for the existence of a key store.
• The –n option creates a new server certificate.
