The Toolbox CLI is a new interface for firmware 2.2 that automates and simplifies IB partition management, fabric configuration, and other tasks and also provides information about the IB fabric.
The Toolbox CLI is started with the toolbox command from the restricted Linux shell and has the prompt:
[toolbox-cli]
Within the Toolbox CLI, the command structure is the following:
action1 object1 [action2|object2|option][option][option]....
where:
action1 is add, show, set, and so on.
object1 is partition, config, sm, and so on.
action2 is backup, disable, restore, an so on.
object2 is all, master, switch, and so on.
option is ip=IP_address, pkey=P_Key, name=name, and so on.
For example, to display all ports that are members of the partition named testpartition, type:
[toolbox-cli] show partition name=testpartition ports
