How does a storage administrator obtain the Hitachi Device Manager (HDvM) CLI software?

Question

Options

• AInstall it from the Hitachi Command Suite DVD.
• BInstall the RAID Manager/CCI software.
• CDownload it from the HDvM server.
• DDownload the HDvM CLI license.

• C
  94% (17)
• D
  6% (1)

Explanation

Downloading the HDvM CLI from the HDvM server (option C) is correct because the CLI is a client-side component that connects to an already-installed HDvM server - the server hosts the CLI package so administrators can pull it down to any management workstation without needing physical media.

• A is wrong because the Hitachi Command Suite DVD contains the full server-side installation package, not the lightweight CLI tool distributed post-install.
• B is wrong because RAID Manager/CCI is a separate product used for host-based replication and LUN management - it has no relation to the HDvM CLI.
• D is wrong because downloading a license grants you the right to use software, not the software itself; licenses and binaries are distinct.

Memory tip: Think "client gets software from the server it talks to" - since HDvM CLI is just a remote control for the HDvM server, it naturally lives on that server waiting to be downloaded.
