Using the ACU CLI
Access ACU with one of the many methods available:
• Accessing ACU in the offline environment (on page 10)
• Accessing ACU in the online environment (on page 15)
Some ACU CLI features are only available in the offline environment, such as setting the boot controller and
boot volume.
ACU CLI has two operating modes:
• Console mode ("Opening the CLI in Console mode" on page 46)
You can adjust several configuration parameters on several devices without having to restart ACU each
time.
• Command mode ("Opening the CLI in Command mode" on page 46)
