Overview of ESS Command Line Interface (CLI)
The ESS Command Line Interface consists of a number of scripts to communicate with
the ESS Copy Services server. The Command Line Interface is Java-based and
therefore requires the Java JDK version 1.1.8 to be installed on each host system from
which you want to issue the commands. The CLI code level must be at the same release
level as the microcode that is installed in the ESS clusters. The CLI can be installed on
any host system that is connected to the ESS that is defined as the primary Copy
Services server via a local area network. It is not required that the host system is
attached to the ESS storage.
In the ESS Copy Services Web Interface you can configure that the execution of Copy
Services server commands is password protected. If you enable password protection
you have to provide a user ID and password with each command invocation.
