What is the purpose of the Hitachi Device Manager (HDvM) "HiCommandCLI.properties" file?

Question

Options

• AIt allows scripting of CLI commands.
• BIt contains a list of permitted commands.
• CIt contains the names of all hosts which can execute HDvM CLI commands.
• DIt allows the user to specify a number of defaults to be used when running HDvM CLI commands.

• A
  2% (1)
• B
  2% (1)
• C
  4% (2)
• D
  92% (46)

Explanation

HiCommandCLI.properties is a configuration file that lets users define default values - such as server host, port, username, and password - so those parameters don't need to be typed out every time a CLI command is run (option D).

Option A is wrong because scripting CLI commands is handled by writing shell scripts or batch files, not by a properties file. Option B is wrong because HDvM doesn't restrict permitted commands through a properties file - command availability is governed by user roles and licenses. Option C is wrong because host access control is managed through server-side configuration and authentication, not a client-side properties file.

Memory tip: Think of .properties files the way you'd think of a "preferences" or "defaults" file in any application - they store settings that persist across sessions so you don't have to re-enter them every time.
