HP Command View for Tape Libraries v.3.7 SMI-S Provider Installation Instructions (390736-009, December 2013)

1. Enter the path <Installed directory>\Command View TL\op-cimom\bin in the
Environment variables PATH.
2. To create a cimUser, enter the command cimuser -a -u <cimuser>.
The command asks for password and a confirmation. Provide the password of your choice.
3. To provide access to particular name space to a user use the command cimauth -a -u
<cimuser> -n <namespace> -R -W.
The Tape Provider all classes are implemented in two names spaces (root/PG_Interop and
root/hptl) . Therefore both name spaces should be given the read/write access. User accounts
are organized into groups, and a set of permissions are assigned to each group.

cimuser -m -u <cimuser>

• <UserName> is the user name.
• <OldPassword> is the old password for the user.
• <NewPassword> is the new password for the user.

wbemexec tool for CIM Server Configuration
Alternate to CIMUser, CIMAuth commands wbemexec tool can also be used to configure CIM Server.
Submit an XML request contained in the file cimrequest.xml to the CIM Server running on the local
host wbemexec.exe cimrequest.xml.
Synopsis
wbemexec [ -h hostname ] [ -p portnumber ] [ -v httpversion ] [ -m httpmethod
] [ -t timeout ] [ -u username ] [ -w password ] [ -d debugoption ] [ -s ]
[ inputfile ]
The wbemexec command provides a command line interface to the
CIM Server. The input to the command consists of a CIM request
encoded in XML. The request is submitted to the CIM Server for
execution. The result of the operation is returned to stdout, and consists
of the CIM response encoded in XML.
By default, the operation is executed on the local host, using the
default port (5988), and the request is sent as an HTTP/1.1 request,
using the HTTP POST method. By default, wbemexec waits 20000
milliseconds (20 seconds) on sending a request, then times out if a
response hasn't been received.
