NOTE: Care must be taken when specifying passwords on the command line. This makes them
available in the command history, in the process list while executing, and in the audit log if executed
as part of a task. Be sure to clear your command history, or use alternate methods for specifying
passwords. For example, prompt, input file.
mxauth
Adds, removes, or lists authorizations in Systems Insight Manager.
Synopsis
mxauth -a|r -u username | -U usergroupname -R toolboxname -n nodename
mxauth -a|r -u username | -U usergroupname -R toolboxname -g groupname
mxauth -a|r -f filename
mxauth [-l t]
mxauth -l f [-b encoding ]
Description
The mxauth command is used to manage authorizations. These associations between users, user
group name, toolboxes, and systems or system groups can be added or removed only by
administrative rights users. Any Systems Insight Manager user can list authorizations. Authorizations
formed from users, toolboxes, and systems are called system authorizations.
• mxauth -a|r -u username -U usergroupname -R toolboxname -n nodename
This command enables full rights users to add or remove one system authorization.
Asterisks are supported for the systemname parameter. Systems Insight Manager recognizes
the asterisk as a wildcard character to indicate adding the system authorization for all currently
configured systems. When using the wildcard character on the command line, enclose it in
quotation marks to prevent the shell interpreter from preprocessing it.
• mxauth -a|r -u username -U usergroupname -R toolboxname -g groupname
This command enables administration rights users to add or remove one system group
authorization.
