cplxmodify(1M)cplxmodify(1M)NAMEcplxmodify - modify an attribute of a system complex
SYNOPSIS
ComplexName]
username
DESCRIPTION
The command modifies attributes of the complex of a partitionable sys‐
tem. The command is the equivalent, at the complex level, of the com‐
mand, which modifies attributes of an nPartition.
The complex to be modified defaults to the local complex, the one on
which the command is run. A remote complex can be identified by speci‐
fying either the or option in combination with the option.
Superuser permission is required to run this command on the local par‐
tition. If the option is used to access a remote partition or complex,
superuser permission is not required on the local system, and the local
system need not exist on an nPartition. If the option is specified,
username on the remote host must have superuser permission or the com‐
mand will fail.
By the nature of its operation, this command can modify the configura‐
tion of its target complex. Operation can be affected by the state of
the target complex's nPartition Configuration Privilege. If this priv‐
ilege is unrestricted (the default), or the complex is accessed using
the option, all operations are allowed. Otherwise the command fails.
The option is unaffected by the state of the nPartition Configuration
Privilege. Note: This privilege state can only be changed at the ser‐
vice processor's Command menu.
Refer to the for a description of the partition management terms used
in this man page.
Options and Arguments
recognizes the following command line options and arguments:
Allows access to the complex specified by the option. The accessed
complex is then considered the target complex. Access is through the
service processor's LAN port.
The option is required if this option is used.
If this option is specified, the command prompts for a password.
If an error is reported when you attempt to connect using this
option, check to see that IPMI LAN access has not been disabled
on the remote service processor. Access to the complex through
IPMI over LAN can be enabled or disabled by logging on to the
service processor and using the command from the Command Menu.
The options are mutually exclusive.
This option should only be used in combination with either the
option. IPaddress|hostname specifies the IP address or hostname
of the target partition or complex
Changes the name of the target complex to
ComplexName. This option may also be used to name a complex for
the first time.
The characters which can appear in a valid complex name are
(dash), (underscore), " " (space) and (period). If the complex
name includes a space, then the name should be enclosed in dou‐
ble quotes. The complex name can have a maximum of 20 charac‐
ters; it should not start with a dash
Specifies the required authorization to access a partition other than
the local system (but can also be used as a loopback access to
the local partition). The complex to be modified is the one in
which this target partition resides.
The option is required if this option is used.
If this option is specified, the command prompts for a password.
username specifies a configured user name on the target parti‐
tion.
Note: This command is a Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM)
Client Application. The option accesses the target partition
using a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connection. If errors are
reported, check that the conditions described in the section are
satisfied.
RETURN VALUE
The command exits with one of the following values:
Successful completion.
Error condition occurred.
EXAMPLES
Change the name of the local complex to "Basingstoke".
Change the name of a remote complex to "Ploverleigh". The command
prompts for the password.
DEPENDENCIES
This command uses the Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) product
and some of its configuration settings. If you encounter connection
errors when using the option, check that the following two conditions
are satisfied:
· Use the command (see cimconfig(1M) in the WBEM product documenta‐
tion) to verify (and correct if necessary) the setting of the fol‐
lowing two variables:
·
·
· The target partition's digital certificate has been appended to the
local partition's Shared Authentication Store. For the nPartition
commands, the Shared Authentication Store is stored in the file:
This file is used by all the clients, which use SSL based certifi‐
cates. If these clients trust a target partition, then the nParti‐
tion commands will also trust the target partition.
Refer to the WBEM documents specified in the section below for further
information.
