omconfig: Managing Components Using the Instrumentation Service

The omconfig command allows you to provide values that define warning events, configure alert actions, clear logs, and configure system shutdown, as well as allowing you to perform other systems management tasks.

Examples of omconfig capabilities include the administrator's privilege to clear command, alert, and hardware logs; the administrator's privilege to configure and execute system shutdown; power user and administrator's privilege to default or specify values for warning events on current probes, fans, voltage probes, and temperature probes; power user and administrator's privilege to set alert actions in the event of a warning or failure event from intrusion, current probes, fans, voltage probes, and temperature probes.

For information on how to use the omconfig system command to view and to manage cost of ownership information (assetinfo), see "omconfig system assetinfo: Editing Cost of Ownership Values."

Often you must use the omreport commands to get the information you need to execute an omconfig command. For example, if you want to edit the minimum temperature for a warning event on a temperature probe, you need to know the index of the probe you want to configure. You can use the omreport chassis temps command to display a list of probes and their indexes. For more information on using the omreport command, see "omreport: Viewing System Status Using the Instrumentation Service."

Conventions for Parameter Tables

When listing the parameters that a command can take, the parameters are listed in alphabetical order instead of the order in which they appear in the command line interface.

The symbol , often called pipe, is the logical exclusive or operator. For example, enable disable means that you can enable or disable the component or feature, but you cannot simultaneously enable and disable the component or feature.

omconfig Command Summary

NOTE: Although this section lists all possible omconfig commands, the commands available on your system depend on your system configuration. If you try to get help or execute a command for a component that is not installed on your system, Server Administrator issues a message that the component or feature is not found on the system.
