1 Getting Started The VCEM Command Line is a family of executables that provide the facilities necessary for the most frequently used management operations for the Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager infrastructure. The HP Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager Command Line Interface (VCEMCLI) can be used as an alternate method for managing common Virtual Connect operations. The VCEM.CMD executable provides failover management. New to this release, VCEMCLI.
Choosing a location for the script files Do not place the scripts you create in the VCEMCLI installation directory as this can prevent product upgrades from functioning. Instead, create your scripts in a separate directory outside the HP installation directory tree. Do not make changes to the example scripts in the VCEMCLI installation directory as this may prevent product upgrades from functioning. Make a copy of the example scripts in a separate location if you want to make changes to them.
2 Using VCEMCLI VCEMCLI can be executed from the Windows command line or from scripts written in any Windows-supported scripting language. Executable The vcemcli.exe executable is located in the HP VCEM Installation Root Directory\Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager CLI directory. During the VCEM installation process, the directory containing vcemcli.exe is added to the %PATH% environment variable.
Table 1 Common options (continued) CLI options Description –timeout seconds When set, instructs VCEMCLI how long to wait for blocking commands. -pollinginterval seconds When set, instructs VCEMCLI how often to poll VCEM for job or power status. Using VCEMCLI in a script The following example illustrates how VCEMCLI can be used to automate common profile management tasks.
%CLI% -poweroff devicebay -enclosureName %ENCLNAME% -bayname %%I -forceOnTimeout if ERRORLEVEL 1 goto ERRORHANDLER ) echo -----------------------------------------echo The server in bay %%I is off. Assigning profile PROFILE-%%I %CLI% -assign profile -profilename PROFILE-%%I -enclosureName %ENCLNAME% -bayname %%I if ERRORLEVEL 1 goto ERRORHANDLER ) ) goto END :ERRORHANDLER echo Error processing last command.
RBAC Details VCEM provides the following role based user types. Individual VCEMCLI commands require different access permissions based on the resource involved and the read or write operation being called. Access is determined based on the credentials used by VCEMCLI. • VCEM Administrator—Manages all VCEM resources. All operations are permitted to all resources. • VCEM Domain Group Administrator—Manages VC Domains and server profiles in one or more VC Domain Groups.
Table 2 RBAC privileges (continued) VCEM Group Limited VCEM User Operator (read only) Command line options VCEM VCEM VCEM Group Group Administrator Administrator Operator -set iscsi-boot-param x x x -remove iscsi-boot-param x x x -show job x x x x x -show version x x x x x VCEMCLI commands for read operations require minimum VCEM privilege, whereas write operations require full privilege to the affected resource.
default connections. Subsequent VCEMCLI operations on the same server profile define other network and SAN connections. Creation of a server profile requires only two mandatory attributes: • Profile name • VC Domain Group to which the profile will belong The profile name must be unique, less than 64 characters in length, and contain only alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores. For more information see “add profile” (page 18).
NOTE: You can remove all the iSCSI connections. You cannot add more connections than the maximum allowed. The maximum allowed connections is based on VC firmware mode. See the HP Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager 6.3 User Guide for more information. • Select from the following FC connection options: ◦ Add FC SAN connections using the -add fc-connection command. ◦ Modify FC SAN connections using the -set fc-connectioncommand. ◦ Remove FC SAN connections using the -remove fc-connection command.
Displaying job details The –show job -jobid command displays detail for the specified VCEM job. The command returns a value corresponding to the current state of the job. The following list displays job return codes. • COMPLETED (0)—The job is complete. • PENDING (10)—The job is waiting to run. • RUNNING (11)—The job is still executing. • WARNING (12)—Job succeeded with minor errors. • FAILED (13)— The job failed.
Accessing VCEMCLI help Help is obtained by running VCEMCLI without any arguments.

3 Using VCEM commands This chapter describes VCEMCLI commands . add profile The -add profile command creates a profile from the supplied server profile description. Syntax -add profile -vcdomaingroup [-mactypeoverride ] [-wwntypeoverride ] [-sntypeoverride ] Parameters Table 3 Parameter descriptions for -add profile Parameter Description Required Optional -profilename Unique name of a newly created server profile.
Minimum Required Role Based Security VCEM Group Administrator Remarks This command creates a new unassigned server profile. VCEM fills empty attributes with a default value. VCEM generates a profile based on the value settings associated with the -vcDomainGroup argument (it fills all the minimum required attributes to create a profile with default values) and it overwrites some of the default values with the values specified on the VCEMCLI command line.
set profile The -set profile command modifies the properties on an existing server profile. Syntax -set profile -profilename [-name ] [-efistate absent] Parameters Table 4 Parameter descriptions for -set profile Parameter Description Required Optional -profilename Name of the profile you want to modify. x -name New name of the server profile x -efistate Specifies the presence of EFI state information.
assign profile The -assign profile command assigns the profile identified by the ProfileName to the bay specified by the BayName. Syntax -assign profile –ProfileName -enclosurename -bayname [-poweronbay] Parameters Table 5 Parameter descriptions for -assign profile Parameter Description Required -profilename Unique name of the server profile to be assigned x -enclosurename The enclosure containing the x bay to assign the profile to.
Minimum Required Role Based Security VCEM Group Limited Operator CAUTION: If VCEMCLI is used in environments where logical server managers or upper level managers are present, assigning a server profile can make it inconsistent with the upper level manager. HP recommends using the upper level manager to assign server profiles. Remarks The job status of non-blocking operations can be obtained by executing VCEMCLI with the –show job command and providing the associated job ID.
• The bay must belong to the same VC Domain Group where the server profile belongs. • The bay is not an auxiliary bay. VCEM currently does not provide a method to detect auxiliary or covered bays. A server profile cannot be assigned to an auxiliary or covered bay. VCEMCLI reports an error if an attempt is made to assign a server profile to an auxiliary or covered bay. • If the server is a BL890 multisystem, the target bay must be the one containing the primary blade.

5 Troubleshooting VCEMCLI VCEMCLI calls result in access denied errors To resolve access denied errors, verify that the credentials used with the VCEMCLI have the required RBAC privileges configured in the CMS for the operation and resource being modified. VCEMCLI calls result in errors for invalid leading character or invalid characters For leading characters, verify that you are using the ASCII dash characters rather than one of the many UNICODE dash variants.
Unable to assign a profile to a Domain Group If the profile is not the same configuration as the VC Domain Group, then you might not be able to assign the profile to the VC Domain Group. To resolve this, verify that the profile meets the requirements for the intended VC Domain Group. See the HP Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager 6.3 User Guide for additional troubleshooting information.
For more information about supported Virtual Connect firmware, go to http://www.hp.com/go/ vcem. Creating a server profile fails Attempting to create a profile can fail if any of the following situations occur: • VCEM does not have enough free MAC or WWN addresses • Some MAC or WWN addresses are already being used by another server profile. • The MAC or WWN addresses in use by the VC Domain are not defined as custom ranges in VCEM. To resolve this: 1. 2. 3. 4.
As a result, VCEM APIs can report false job results such as, Completed with success, even though the server profile changes have not taken effect.
Commands -add profile or -set profile error messages VCEM requires the boot target LUN configuration and server profiles to be either a three-digit decimal between 0–255, or a 16-digit hexadecimal value between 0 and FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. The following error message appears whenever an -add profile or -set profile operation is performed and there is one or more server profiles inside the VC Domains that have a boot LUN that does not comply with the required conditions. An invalid boot LUN was entered.
