108 omconfig: Managing Components Using the Instrumentation Service
When you type omconfig preferences snmp setting=rootpw, the system prompts you to
supply values for the required parameters.
When you type omconfig preferences snmp, you must supply all of the parameters in the initial
command line. For example:
omconfig preferences snmp setting=rootpw oldpw=openmanage newpw=
serveradmin confirmnewpw=serveradmin
omconfig preferences useraccess
Depending on the policies of your enterprise, you may want to restrict the access that some user levels
have to Server Administrator. The omconfig preferences useraccess command allows you to grant or
withhold the right of Users and Power Users to access Server Administrator.
Table 5-18 shows the valid parameters for the command.
