OPS-CLI Command-Line Tool

The OPS-CLI tool is a Java application that you can use to manipulate the VMware Aria Operations database. It replaces the VCOPS-CLI and DBCLI tools.

The product includes the executable file in the tools directory or in <VCOPS_BASE>/tools/opscli/.

Operating System	Filename
Linux	ops-cli.sh
Python	ops-cli.py

All OPS-CLI commands use the -h parameter for interactive and localized help.

When you add the control command to the post_install.sh script, it triggers the redescribe process after an adapter is installed or upgraded.

control -h | redescribe --force
