Goal

Document a method to run Flash Storage Command Line Interface (FSCLI) commands directly on the FS1-2 Pilot.  This method should only be used if there is no available workstation configured with the FSCLI software.

Solution

1. There are 3 methods you can access the Pilot console:
• Using the SER MGT port on a Controller:
  • Requires a laptop and terminal software (PuTTY).
  • NULL modem cable with RJ45 connector for the Controller end.
  • Once logged in, start the HOST console and then use the Private Management Interface (PMI) to access the Pilot.
  • See KM document 2070735.1 FS System: How to Access FS1-2 ILOMs Using a Serial Connection for more details.
• Using a monitor and keyboard:
  • This method is included in this document for completeness.
  • Requires a VGA compatible monitor and USB keyboard.
  • Not recommended as session keystrokes are not captured, no remote control and equipment may not be available.
• Using ssh:
  • This method is also included in this document for completeness. 
  • Requires fscli to enable ssh access to a Pilot, so it is not likely that you would have to use the commands below to run the fscli directly on the Pilot itself.
  • See KM 2029847.1, FS System: How to Enable Ssh Access to the Pilot for details.
    
    
2. Once a connection has been made to the Pilot console, login as root.  See KM 2046703.1 FS System: Passwords Associated with the Oracle Fs1-2 Flash Storage System.
   
   
3. It is necessary to utilize the PERL5LIB environmental variable as part of the command itself:
   
   [root@pilot2 ~]# echo <password> | PERLIB5LIB=/var/lib/pillar/apps/AxiomCLI/prereq_modules per /var/lib/pillar/apps/AxiomCLI/src/fscli.pl <fscli command options> -oracleFs localhost
   
   

   Example on how to run the Controller list command using the administrator account:

   [root@pilot2 ~]# echo pillar | PERL5LIB=/var/lib/pillar/apps/AxiomCLI/prereq_modules perl /var/lib/pillar/apps/AxiomCLI/src/fscli.pl controller -list -u administrator -oracleFs localhost
   Password:
   /CONTROLLER-01
   /CONTROLLER-02
   [root@pilot2 ~]#

    
   Example on how to run the Controller reenable command support (pillar) account:

   [root@pilot2 ~]# echo pillar | PERL5LIB=/var/lib/pillar/apps/AxiomCLI/prereq_modules perl /var/lib/pillar/apps/AxiomCLI/src/fscli.pl controller -reenable -u pillar -oracleFs localhost
   Password:
   Command Succeeded
   [root@pilot2 ~]#

    

   NOTE: Starting in R6.2.10, running the fscli command will not require the environment variables to be set as the command will be executable the same way as it would be from a normal workstation.
