Pegasus command-line utilities
The open source Pegasus implementation includes a set of command line utilities that you can use to control or change the Pegasus environment.
The i5/OS® version of Pegasus includes these commands, with several changes to support running Pegasus on i5/OS. During normal use, administrators should rarely need to use these commands.
The commands include:
- cimmofl
- cimconfig
- cimprovider
For the i5/OS implementation, the cimmofl, cimconfig, and cimprovider commands require *IOSYSCFG and *ALLOBJ special authorities.
All of the command-line utilities need to run from a QSHELL command-line, which requires that the QSHELL product (SS1 opt. 30) be installed on the system. You can run these commands from /QIBM/UserData/OS400/CIM.
- cimmofl usage information
Use this command to compile provider registrations and to compile CIM class descriptions (using the Managed Object Format [MOF] language) into the class schema stored in the repository.- cimconfig usage information
Configure the startup options for the CIMOM with the cimconfig command.- cimprovider usage information
Enable or disable a registered provider, primarily during testing with this command. The CIMOM must be running to use this command.
