IBM Power Ideas Portal


This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Power Systems products, including IBM i. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).

Additional CLI options for acsbundle.jar /PLUGIN=cfg /SYSTEM=<system>

Request for enhancement to acsbundle.jar /PLUGIN=cfg /SYSTEM=<system>

Please add cli options for additional settings, so that all system configurations can be set via the CLI for scripting.

In short if there is an option in the GUI it should be an option on the CLI. I’m specifically looking to configure the following settings via the CLI.

Group name. Existing or New Group , Password Prompting, Hardware Management Console, Hardware Management Interface 1 and 2, Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI), Tape Management 1 and 2.


Please see attachment for a better look.

    The CAAC has reviewed this IBM Idea and recommends that IBM view this as a medium priority Idea that should be addressed.

    The GUI always needs to reflect what can be done in other ways. There are two ways to do something, we should all have the same capabilities.

    Background: The COMMON Americas Advisory Council (CAAC) members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CAAC has a key role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual IBM Ideas on the broader IBM i community and has therefore reviewed your Idea.
