There were a number of Opengear tools listed above that make it simple to configure the console server and ensure the
changes are stored in the console server's flash memory etc. These commands are covered in the previous chapters and
include:
ï‚· config which allows manipulation and querying of the system configuration from the command line. With config a
new configuration can be activated by running the relevant configurator, which performs the action necessary to
make the configuration changes live
ï‚· portmanager which provides a buffered interface to each serial port. It is supported by the pmchat and pmshell
commands which ensure all serial port access is directed via the portmanager
ï‚· pmpower is a configurable tool for manipulating remote power devices that are serially or network connected to
the console server
ï‚· SDT Connector is a java client applet that provides point-and-click SSH tunneled connections to the console
server and Managed Devices
There are also a number of other CLI commands related to other open source tools embedded in the console server
including:
ï‚· PowerMan provides power management for many preconfigured remote power controller (RPC) devices. For CLI
details refer http://linux.die.net/man/1/powerman
ï‚· Network UPS Tools (NUT) provides reliable monitoring of UPS and PDU hardware and ensure safe shutdowns
of the systems which are connected - with a goal to monitor every kind of UPS and PDU. For CLI details refer
http://www.networkupstools.org
ï‚· Nagios is a popular enterprise-class management tool that provides central monitoring of the hosts and services
in distributed networks. For CLI details refer http://www.nagios.org
