STATEMGR command line syntax STATEMGR [/R | -R] [EVNAME] [/?] Toolkit utilities 25 - or STATEMGR [/W | -W] [EVNAME] [VALUE] [/?] STATEMGR command line arguments Command line argument /R or ­R Description This argument reads the state of the environment variable defined by [EVNAME]. The value of the environment variable is returned as a return code. This argument writes the state defined by [VALUE] to an environment variable defined by [EVNAME]. This argument creates an environment variable used to represent the state to manage. The variable can be any word that is eight characters or less. This argument is used only with the /W or -W arguments to indicate the value of the environment variable to maintain. [VALUE] is limited to integers between 0 and 254. If no value is provided when using /W or -W, the state environment variable is cleared. This argument displays help information. /W or -W EVNAME VALUE /? STATEMGR return codes Value 0 n Meaning The command was completed successfully. N arguments were ignored because they were not in the variable=<string> format. STATEMGR command line examples Command line argument STATEMGR /W PHASE 3 STATEMGR /R PHASE Description STATEMGR writes the state value 3 to the PHASE environment variable. STATEMGR reads the PHASE environment variable and returns its value as a return code. If the environment variable has been reset or no value has been stored, the return code is 0. Using RBSURESET RBSURESET resets the BIOS settings for a server by reapplying the default factory setting at the next reboot. RBSURESET does not erase array configurations or logical storage volumes. RBSURESET command line syntax rbsureset [-reset] [/?] Toolkit utilities 26 RBSURESET command line arguments Command line argument [-reset] [/?] Description This argument is required. If no argument is provided, the system displays usage information for the command. This argument displays help information. RBSURESET return codes Value 0 1 Meaning The BIOS settings have been successfully reset to the factory default. The BIOS settings have not been reset. Using HPDISCOVERY HPDISCOVERY provides an inventory of the server being configured and must be run on each server deployed. HPDISCOVERY is executed by the server configuration script and captures the following information: · · · · · · · · System ID System name ROM information Processor information Memory information PCI devices present in the system Storage configuration information NIC information User process decisions can be made based on data that is in the file created by this utility. HPDISCOVERY command line syntax hpdiscovery [-f filename] [/?] HPDISCOVERY command line arguments Command line argument -f filename -? Description This argument specifies the location and name of the Hardware Discovery data file. This argument displays help information. HPDISCOVERY return codes Value 0 1 Meaning The command was completed successfully. The command contained an invalid parameter. Toolkit utilities 27 HPDISCOVERY command line examples Command line argument hpdiscovery -f /toolkit/hpdiscovery. xml Description This command generates the file hpdiscovery. xml in the /toolkit directory. Using IFHW IFHW is used from a script file, in conjunction with other utilities, to control the deployment. The IFHW utility enables you to make intelligent queries against the hardware discovery file. Queries take the form of a logical expression, and the result of the expression is returned as the return code of the tool, which the hosting script can use to conditionally perform actions. IFHW command line syntax ifhw [path]hpdiscoveryfilename [path]allboards. xml <expression> IFHW command line arguments Command line argument [path]hpdiscoveryfilename [path]allboards. xml Description This argument specifies the hardware discovery file used to run the query. This argument specifies the allboards. xml PCI device list file, which is used to convert PCI IDs found in hardware discovery into device names, such as "Smart Array 5i Controller. " This argument specifies the query expression. [. . . ] The examples in this guide might not be specific to your operating system environment. See the Linux system administrator's guide for more information about your particular environment. Not all options can be configured using Toolkit utilities. Some options must be configured manually or with other configuration utilities, which are available online, before they can be used with the Toolkit. [. . . ]
