A Managing the EMU
This chapter describes how to manage the EMU using the CLI or the Enclosure Manager physical
interface.
CLI reference
The CLI is the primary interface for managing the Enclosure Manager and is accessed via secure
shell protocol over the LAN. Using the CLI is necessary for functions not possible through any other
mechanism or interface. For example, creating and setting Enclosure Manager user accounts and
passwords and remotely powering the enclosure ON or OFF can be done only with the CLI.
Command line conventions
CLI input is case-insensitive except when otherwise noted. Commands are organized into a tree,
with approximately 30 base commands. Each of these commands can have any number of
subcommands. Subcommands can also have further subcommands. Each command used in this
appendix follows the conventions listed in Table 16 (page 131).

Used to enclose command arguments that contain spaces.” “
NOTE: All users logged into the CLI have administrator privilege. When a user account is created,
the account has administrator privilege.
Operational groups
Descriptions of the CLI commands are organized by operational group instead of the parser
implementation which is a tree of commands, subcommands, and sub-subcommands. The operational
groups are:
• Authentication—user identity and authentication
• Time functions—Real Time Clock/Calendar control
• Role definition—access control
• Inventory and status—self explanatory
• Internet control—internal and external LAN management
• Server management—iLO dependent control of server
• Enclosure control—global control of enclosure, excluding JBOD management zone
• Forensic—global diagnostic context functions (not directed validation tests)
• Session—CLI session control
