Action qualifier

QualifierDescription
-nameSpecifies the new name for the host configuration.
-descSpecifies the new description of the host configuration.
-addrSpecifies the hostnames or IP addresses associated with the host, IP addresses of the subnet, or the network addresses of the netgroup. Separate each value with a comma.
  • For subnet type, specifies the new IP address of the subnet.
  • For netgroup, specifies the new netgroup's name.
  • Format: <IP address>/[<prefix length>].
  • Default prefix length for IPv4 addresses is 24 and for IPv6 addresses is 64.
NOTE:This information is required when connecting hosts to network shares on the system.
-ignoredAddrSpecifies a list of IP addresses associated with the host that are excluded from data access. Separate each value with a comma.
-netmaskSpecify the subnet mask for the host configuration.
-osTypeSpecify the type of operating system (OS) running on the host. You can enter any value you want. Here are suggestions for some of the common operating systems:
  • undefined — OS is not specified or unknown.
  • other — Other.
  • win2003srv — Windows Server 2003.
  • winxp — Windows XP.
  • win2008srv — Windows Server 2008.
  • winvista — Windows Vista.
  • win2012srv — Windows Server 2012.
  • esx — VMware ESX.
  • redhat — Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
  • sles — SUSE Linux Enterprise.
  • win7 — Windows 7.
  • hyperv — Microsoft Hyper-V.
  • solaris — Solaris.
-addLunsSpecify a comma-separated list of LUN friendly IDs for LUNs to add to the host.
-hlusSpecifies the comma-separated list of Host LUN identifiers to be used by the corresponding hosts which were specified in the -lunHosts option. The number of items in the two lists must match. However, an empty string is a valid value for any element of the Host LUN identifiers list, as long as commas separate the list elements. Such an empty element signifies that the system should automatically assign the Host LUN identifier value by which the corresponding host will access the LUN.

If not specified, the system will automatically assign the Host LUN identifier value for every host specified in the -lunHosts argument list.

-removeLunsSpecify a comma-separated list of LUN friendly IDs for LUNs to remove from the host.

Example

The following command updates the description of host configuration 1014 to indicate that it now holds the payroll database:

uemcli -d 10.0.0.1 -u Local/joe -p MyPassword456! /remote/host –id 1014 set -descr “Accounting” –osType winxp 
Storage system address: 10.0.0.1
Storage system port: 443

ID = 1014
