Accessing CLI utilities

The CLI utilities reside in the Tivoli® Netcool® Performance Manager DataMart and Tivoli Netcool Performance Manager DataLoad bin directories.

1. On the system where DataMart is installed login as pvuser (or any user with access rights to Tivoli Netcool Performance Manager)
   Important: When you run the pvm command to access the DataMart for the first time, you must log in as pvuser.
2. Open a terminal window.
3. For Tivoli Netcool Performance Manager DataMart command-line interfaces, ensure that your environment is set by entering the following command:

   cd /opt/datamart/
   ../dataMart.env
   

4. For DataLoad command-line interfaces, ensure that your environment is set by entering the following command:

   
   cd /opt/datamart/
   ../dataLoad.env
   

5. The CLI commands are in the bin directories where you installed DataMart and DataLoad.
   If you selected the defaults during the installation, the location of these bin directories would be as follows:

   • DataMart

     /opt/datamart/bin
     

   • DataLoad

     /opt/dataload/bin
     

   The following types of executable reside in these bin directories:

   • Basic Utilities -- CLI commands like resgmr and inventory that perform basic Tivoli Netcool Performance Manager administrative tasks.
   • Conversion Utilities -- CLI commands that convert different database file formats into the Tivoli Netcool Performance Manager DataMart format.

   Note: The CLI utilities support a help option (-?) that explains how to use the command.
