The following procedure describes how to display the FoD
information of the target system, and how to install or uninstall
the FoD license key(s) using out-of-band (OOB) mode.
The following prerequisites are necessary for this task:
- The DSA Portable Edition is available on a removable medium (for
example, a CD-ROM or a USB key) as a self-extracting file.
- The operating system on a laptop is available for OOB mode.
- DSA has Internet access. The commands report_cmm_active_fod, install_cmm_fod, and uninstall_cmm_fod require Internet access.
- Insert the removable medium with DSA Portable Edition into
the laptop.
- Start the DSA Portable Edition executable on the removable
medium.
- Enter the following command and parameters that indicate
the remote key repository (CMM) and the default value for its local
CMM device:
DSA fod report_cmm_active_fod --host <userid:password@hostip:[port]
The active FoD feature(s) for the key repository are displayed
in the console.
- Enter the following command and parameters to download
specific keys for corresponding FoD features from KMS and installed
on the target system (CMM repository):
DSA fod install_cmm_fod --ibmid <userid:password> |
--uid <unique_id> | --authcode <code> | --mt <machinetype> |
--host <[http(s)://userid:password@hostip:[port]>
The definitions of the parameters are:
- --ibmid <userid:password>
- The KMS ID credential for the Lenovo Web site.
- --uid <unique_id>
- The unique
identifier information of the FoD feature.
- --authcode <code>
- Authentication
code for FoD features.
- --mt <machinetype>
- The machine
type of target device (CMM).
- --host <[http(s)://userid:password@hostip:[port]>
- The remote key repository (CMM).
- Enter the following command and parameters to uninstall
the FoD key from the target system (CMM repository):
DSA fod uninstall_cmm_fod --keyid <keyid> |
--host <[http(s)://userid:password@hostip:[port]>
The definitions of the parameters are:
- --keyid<Keyid>
- This is obtained
from the command DSAfod_report_cmm_active_fod.
- --host <[http(s)://userid:password@hostip:[port]>
- The remote key repository (CMM) and the default value for
its local CMM device.
Note: The parameter --host <[http(s)://userid:password@hostip:[port]> is the authorization information for the remote key repository (CMM).
http or https is the cim interface; the default is https. User ID,
Password is for the device interface connection. The default value
of CMM port is 5989.
If DSA fails to connect to CMM,
the following error message is displayed: Failed to connect
