Navisphere CLI for AX100i

You can search and download Navisphere CLI installer on support.emc.com:

Have you upgraded your AX100 to Navisphere Manager? Navisphere CLI does not support Navisphere Express. You can refer to this thread:

Managing AX150 using navicli

Anyway, you should still be able to download the older version of NaviCLI on support.enc.com

Hello Roger,

we already tried that version and it is too new to AX100i and it does not work. We need an older version.

Best regards,

Dani

Hello Roger,

could you please send me the direct link of the oldest NaviCLI? When I search it don't appear on support.emc.com.

FLARE-Operating-Environment: 02.19.100.5.007

Thank you very much.

I can only find the link of 6.26. AX100 should support this version.

https://download.emc.com/downloads/DL14942_Navisphere_CLI_(Win)_6.26.32.0.72.exe

BTW, If you are EMC service partner, you can download all the old versions on EMC Service Partner Web.

Hello Roger,

we aren't EMC service partner. Version 6.26 don't work. There is the following error when we try to execute a command:

Invalid Command.

Command is not supported

This command is not supported on this subsystem type.

I think that we need version 6.19 but we can't download it...

The other option is upgrade the FLARE to 02.20 o Navisphere Manager but we don't know where to download it

Best regards.

Contact your sales team, they will point you to the right team. You might need to email the softwares team.

Sheron

Hello,

we contacted our sales team an they tell us that AX100i is out of support. They do not want to send us the naviCLI version, they say they haven't it available but it is a lie because it is accessible to all partners... We need naviCLI 6.19 but we cannot download it because we aren't partners, only clients. Could you please send me a direct link to this version if you have access?

Thank you very much.

Regards,

Dani

Hello Dani,

I went and searched if I have anything I could share that could help you.

However I am unable to find ant support tool for AX100

https://support.emc.com/search/?text=navishere%20cli&resource=ST

That's all I could find, I see AX4 series listed but no AX100.

Regards,

Sheron

Hello Sheron,

the only web page that I have encountered related to AX100i is:

https://www.emc.com/microsites/clariion-support/ax100/support.esp?redirect=true

But the link named "Register to download software" does not load.

To download NaviCLI 6.19 we need partner permissions but we aren't partners

Best regards,

Dani

You have hit the right link Dani. Isn't there something they can do with giving you a one time access

Regards,

Sheron

What command are you trying to run? Some of the commands are not supported on AX100 - in any version. You need to check the CLI Users Manual to determine if the commands are supported for AX100.

Hello glen,

I try to run:

navicli -h 192.168.1.251 luncache -list

and

navicli -h 192.168.1.251 luncache -clear

I have checked the EMC Navisphere CLI Reference and these commands are supported on AX100i. But I think that we need to install Navisphere Manager too...

Best regards,

Dani

1. iSCSI would not depend on the condition of the cache. If LUN cache is dirty, the LUN will not be available

2. On the AX100 I believe the version of flare running is 20. If you're using NaviExpress - go to the SYSTEM/Software on the left side and see what the FLARE Operating Environment is - the last part is the current version - for example, this is what's running on a lab box with NaviExpress: 02.20.150.5.016 - this is version 20 patch level 016.

In the Release 19 CLI Manual (attached), there is a note that states that you must have the Navisphere Manager to use CLI commands - page 1-16.

On this AX150 the luncache command does not work. It does not appear that any CLI commands work..

C:\Users\kelleg>naviseccli -h 10.xxx.xxx.250 -user xxx -password xxx -scope 0 luncache

Invalid Command.

Command is not supported

This command is not supported on this subsystem type.

On an AX4 running NaviExpress the command does work - the AX4 uses Flare 23 (which is now based on Flare 26)

C:\Users\kelleg>naviseccli -h 10.xxx.xxx.219 -user xxx -password xxx -scope 0 luncache

usage: luncache -clear <-o>

                -list

Too few parameters

C:\Users\kelleg>naviseccli -h 10.xxx.xxx.219 -user xxx -password xxx -scope 0 luncache -list

LOGICAL UNIT NUMBER 0

LUN Offline (Cache Dirty Condition):  NO
