1. Getting Started with CLI

Thank you for purchasing QSAN Technology, Inc. products. XCubeDAS XD5300 series CLI (Command-Line Interface) are intended for system administrators, developers, or engineers to manage the system. It provides command sets to set system settings, show SAS ports and disk drives status, set zone configurations, show system information, download and upgrade firmware, monitor system log, and enclosure information including system temperature, voltage, PSU (Power Supply Unit), and fan speed.

1.1. System Requirement and Setup

The XD5300 series uses the console port as the command line interface. Please use the console cable in the accessory box, and connect it between the controller and the server/host. The CLI function can be accessed by using terminal emulator on a management host that directly connected to the serial port of the XCubeDAS series.
The following procedure will help you to setup the serial console via the console cable that is enclosed in the shipping carton. The following image is the appearance of the console cable.
Figure 1-1 Appearance of a Console Cable
Procedures to Setup the Serial Console
1. Setup the serial cable between the controller and one server/host like in the below
image.
Getting Started with CLI 1
INFORMATION:
For more information about terminal software, please refer to
HyperTerminal: http://www.hilgraeve.com/hyperterminal/
PuTTY: http://www.putty.org/
Figure 1-2 Connect the Console Cable
2. You must use terminal software such as HyperTerminal or Putty to open the console
after the connection is made.
3. Here we first demonstrate HyperTerminal. The console settings are on the following.
Baud rate: 115200, 8 data bit, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control
Terminal type: vt100
