Dell PowerFlex v3.6.x CLI Reference Guide

Logging in

To access the CLI, you must first log in to the management system using a terminal application.

If the CLI and the MDM do not reside on the same server, add the --mdm_ip parameter to all CLI commands.

In a non-clustered environment, use the MDM IP address. In a clustered environment, use the IP addresses of the primary and secondary MDMs, separated by a comma. For example:

scli --mdm_ip 10.10.10.3,10.10.10.4 --login --username supervisor1 --password password1
			 

You will be prompted to enter the password.

scli --mdm_ip 10.10.10.3,10.10.10.4 --login --username JohnDoe@ldap.acme.com --password password1 --ldap_authentication
		  

The default user created during setup is the SuperUser, with the admin username.
