Running Intelligent Virtual Execution - Server CLI commands from the Central Management System CLI

Prev Next

Trellix recommends that, after you have completed initial configuration of the Intelligent Virtual Execution - Server appliances and are managing them from one or more Central Management System appliances, you configure the managed Intelligent Virtual Execution - Server appliances using the Central Management System appliance. Initial configuration tasks for the Intelligent Virtual Execution - Server appliance are covered in Initial configuration .

Trellix also recommends that you configure the managed Intelligent Virtual Execution - Server appliances using the Central Management System Web UI whenever possible, rather than the Central Management System CLI or the Intelligent Virtual Execution - Server CLI. Certain Intelligent Virtual Execution - Server appliance functions, however, can be configured from the Intelligent Virtual Execution - Server CLI only.

Important

When you need to use CLI commands to configure a setting on a Intelligent Virtual Execution - Server appliance, enter the commands on the managing Central Management System appliance. Use one of the following configuration commands, where <vxCommand> is the CLI command you want to apply to the Intelligent Virtual Execution - Server appliance:

  • cmc execute group sysgroup.<groupName> command "<vxCommand>"

  • cmc execute appliance <nodeName> command "<vxCommand>"

The first command configures the setting on a group of appliances. The second command configures the setting on an individual appliance.
