Installing the 3ware CLI on Linux and FreeBSD

3ware CLI can be installed or run directly from the 3ware software CD, or the latest version can be downloaded from the 3ware web site, http://www.3ware.com.

To install the 3ware CLI, copy tw_cli to the directory from which you want to run the program. CLI is located on the 3ware CD in /packages/cli/freebsd or /packages/cli/linux.

Online manual pages are also available in nroff and html formats. These are located in /packages/cli/tw_cli.8.html or tw_cli.8.nroff.

You will need to be root or have root privileges to install the CLI to /usr/sbin and to run the CLI.

Filename: tw_cli

To install the CLI to a different location, change /usr/sbin/ to the desired location.

Notes:

The installation location needs to be in the environment path for root to execute the CLI without using complete paths (i.e., if installed to /usr/sbin/, you can type tw_cli on the command line, otherwise you will have to type the complete path:

/home/user/tw_cli

The 3ware CLI comes in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Be sure to copy the correct version for the version of the operating system you are using.
