178 Using the DRAC 5 SM-CLP Command Line Interface
SM-CLP Management Operations and Targets
The SM-CLP promotes the concept of verbs and targets to provide system management capabilities
through the CLI. The verb indicates the operation to perform, and the target determines the entity (or
object) that runs the operation.
Below is an example of the SM-CLP command line syntax.
<verb> [<options>] [<target>] [<properties>]
During a typical SM-CLP session, the user can perform operations using the verbs listed in Table 11-1.
Management Operations
The DRAC 5 SM-CLP enables users to manage the following:
• Server Power Management — Turn on, shutdown, or reboot the system
• System Event Log (SEL) Management — Display or clear the SEL records
Targets
Table 11-2 provides a list of targets provided through the SM-CLP to support these operations.
