Emulex OneCommand Manager Command Line Interface User Guide
Chapter 1: Introduction
The OneCommand
®
Manager command line interface (CLI) is a comprehensive management utility for Emulex
®
adapters.
The CLI provides support for commonly used commands without requiring the installation of the OneCommand Manager
graphical user interface (GUI). The OneCommand Manager CLI console application name is HbaCmd. At the command line
interface, a single operation is performed by entering hbacmd, followed by a CLI client command and its possible
parameters.
The OneCommand Manager application can be installed on multiple operating systems: Windows, Linux, and Solaris. For
VMware ESXi hosts, use the OneCommand Manager application for VMware vCenter. For details, refer to the Emulex
OneCommand Manager for VMware vCenter Adapters User Guide. You can also manage adapters using the OneCommand
Manager CLI on Windows, but you must install and use the appropriate Emulex CIM Provider on those VMware hosts.
NOTE: The Solaris operating system is supported only on PowerPC (PPC) converged network adapters (CNAs).
NOTE: For VMware ESXi hosts, when advanced adapter management capabilities are required (for example, port
disablement), use the OneCommand Manager for VMware vCenter Server. For more details, refer to the Emulex
OneCommand Manager for VMware vCenter Adapters User Guide.
This product supports the following Emulex host bus adapters (HBAs) and converged fabric adapters (CFAs):
LPe12000-series adapters
LPe15000-series adapters
LPe16000-series adapters, including PPC CNAs
