Appendix B: Accessing the server CLI
Performing certain tasks require that you access the server through the Command Line
Interface (CLI). This section describes how to access the server CLI.
Accessing the command line interface
Performing some tasks require you to access the server through the command line
interface (CLI). Use one of the following methods to access the CLI: serial (console) port
and KVM, or SSH connection.
Using the serial (console) port (HNAS server only)
The SMU ships without a precongured network setup. To perform the initial setup,
access the SMU thr
ough a dir
ect serial connection or KVM. After its network
conguration has been completed, access the SMU’s CLI directly through SSH or through
a Java-enabled SSH session running under NAS Manager.
To connect using a serial console:
Procedure
1. Attach an RS232 null-modem cable (DB-9 female to DB-9 female) to the serial port
on the SMU back panel. Attach the other end of the serial cable to a terminal (for
instance, a laptop).
2. Start a console session using your terminal emulation with the following settings:
■ 115,200 b/s
■ 8 data bits
■ 1 stop bit
■ No parity
■ VT100 emulation
■ No ow control
You may want to enable the logging featur
e in your terminal program to capture the
session.
3. Log in as the user manager. When prompted, enter the password for the user
manager.
4. After connecting, launch the storage server CLI or select the SMU shell.
From the SMU command line, access the server CLI using a method in the displayed
menu, or enter q to access the SMU shell.
