SET DEF SYS$COMMON:[OPT.APPQCIME.tools]
2. Enter the following at the command prompt:
$ @start -version
The version number is displayed.
Combining Start Commands
You can combine the -users and -port commands as follows:
SYS$COMMON:[OPT.APPQCIME.TOOLS]START -users myname -port 1234
or
SYS$COMMON:[OPT.APPQCIME.TOOLS]START -port 1234 -users myname
where
• myname is the user name that must be used to discover this OpenVMS host
• 1234 is the new port.
-on <ip address of NIC
card>
Use this command to configure the CIM extension to listen on
a specific network card (NIC). You can also specify the port
you used. See ”Configuring the CIM Extension to Listen on a
Specific Network Card” on page 255.
-user The user defined in this parameter must be a valid existing
user for the host. Only the user needs to be defined. The user
name and password are provided from the management
server during discovery. The user does not need to have root
authority but the user must have the following system and
process privileges: CMKRNL, SYSPRV and SYSLCK. A
colon-separated list can be used to specify multiple users.
-credentials
<username from the
management server>
:<password>
The credentials defined by this parameter must match the
values entered from the management server during discovery.
They are not used as authentication on the host itself.
-mgmtServerIP
<ip address>
Restricts the CIM extension to listen only to a specific
management server IP address.
