DESCRIPTION

<scheme>://[user:pwd@]<host>:<port>/<namespace[/..]>:<classname>[.<key=value[,..]>]

The objectPath should be enclosed in single quotes so that double quoted

strings are perserved by the command line shell. Refer to the examples section.

The only scheme supported is http. Example:

http://krz:xyz@localhost:5988/root/cimv2:rpm_package.name=glibc

The prop=value[,...] parameter is used to specify <Property>=<Value> pairs for the ci, mi and sp operations. Only one <Property>=<Value> pair must be specified for the sp operation.

Example:

stringProp="a string",booleanProp=true,numericProp=25

Arrays of property values are supported by specifying additional values

separated by commas

Example:

stringProp="a string","another string",numericProp=25,49,12

The prop[,...] parameter specifies the properties to be returned. One prop must be specified for the gp operation. For other operations this parameter is optional, if none are specified all properties will be returned.

Example:

stringProp,booleanProp,numericProp

The method[.param=value[,...] parameter is used to specify <Parameter>=<Value> pairs for the cm operation.

Example:

Method2Execute.stringParam="a string",booleanParam=true,numericParam=25

Arrays of property values are supported by specifying additional values

separated by commas

Example:

Method2Execute.stringParam="a string","another string",numericParam=25,49,12

LIBRARIES

Example

wbemcli ei 'http://localhost:5988/root/cimv2:rpm_package'

The get instance operation can be specified to get more information about a certain package:

wbemcli gi 'http://localhost:5988/root/cimv2:rpm_package.name="glibc"' The create instance (ci) operation can be called using the following format example. Property values can also be specified/add to the sytax.

wbemcli ci 'http://localhost:5988/root/cimv2:TST_InstanceProperties.CreationClassName="TST_InstanceProperties",Id="Instance #2"' 'CreationClassName="TST_InstanceProperties",Id="Instance #2",Property_string2="This is instance#2",Property_uint8=250'

More command line examples can be found from the wbemcli/samples directory.

Host indirection support

<token>: <scheme>://[user:pwd@]<host>:<port>

Assuming the following entry in ./wbemcli.ind:

myCimom: http://localhost:5988

The example in the previous section can then be specified as:

wbemcli gi 'myCimom/root/cimv2:rpm_package.name="glibc"'

FILES

${datarootdir}/sblim-wbemcli/cacert.pem

The default CA certificate file. Can be overriden with -cacert.
