https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/how-to-banish-command-view-from-managing-array/m-p/2996834#M8730 Hi, <BR /><BR />I have non trivial situation. I have two hosts windows and unix (HPUX11) with command view SDM software installed on both (it's ok with licenses). I want to manage array (VA7400, HP18, connected through brocade swfabric) from windows machine, however, I don't want stupid 3rd party scripts on HPUX which use CMDVSDM mainly for diagnostics to destroy my array :(. <BR /><BR />I have configured LUN0 as config write to anyone with secure manager, and write to the machines to their LUN's. <BR /><BR />Is it possible not to let HPUX machine format array (it has terrible scripts for that :)), however still leaving diagnostics functionality like armdsp, etc. ?<BR /><BR />Like allways I'll give points even for ideas ;) Fri, 13 Jun 2003 11:53:37 GMT Saulius_1 2003-06-13T11:53:37Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/how-to-banish-command-view-from-managing-array/m-p/2996834#M8730 Hi, <BR /><BR />I have non trivial situation.

So scripts that use a coded password in them won't run.<BR /><BR /><BR />HTH,<BR /> Massimo<BR /><BR /> Fri, 13 Jun 2003 12:27:36 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/how-to-banish-command-view-from-managing-array/m-p/2996835#M8731 Massimo Bianchi 2003-06-13T12:27:36Z
