chusrtca [-o { a | r | ab | rb}]
[-f welcome-file] [-b banner-file]
[-c] [--help]

chusrtca provides a method to deploy text file(s) containing welcome or warning message and present to all users who login locally on the Hardware Management Console (HMC). The text file must be named WelcomeFile.txt. A banner file can also be specified, to have its contents displayed prior to login with SSH. The banner file must first be copied to the HMC, then it will be copied to a location accessible by SSH daemon. The banner file must be named BannerFile.txt.

-o	Adds (a) or removes (r) the text file containing the welcome text. Add banner (ab) and remove banner (rb) can only be specified when deploying a banner file.
-f	The text file whose contents will be used as welcome, when login locally on the HMC, must be named WelcomeFile.txt.
-b	The text file whose contents will be used as banner, when remotely login using SSH, must be named BannerFile.txt.
-c	Removes the welcome or the banner file from the HMC filesystem. This option requires the -f or -b flags.
--help	Displays the help text for this command and exit.

Adds welcome text. The file is on floppy:

mount /mnt/floppy

chusrtca -o a -f /mnt/floppy/WelcomeFile.txt

Use scp to copy the WelcomeFile.txt file to /tmp on the HMC, then adds welcome text then removes it:

scp someID@someHost:/tmp/WelcomeFile.txt /tmp

chusrtca -o a -f /tmp/WelcomeFile.txt -c

Removes welcome text from the HMC. The welcome text will no longer be displayed:

chusrtca -o r

Removes banner text from the HMC. The banner text will no longer be displayed:

chusrtca -o rb

Use scp to copy the banner file to /tmp on the HMC, then deploy it:

scp someID@someHost:/tmp/BannerFile.txt /tmp

chusrtca -o ab -b /tmp/BannerFile.txt -c

Removes banner text file from the HMC:
