UCS Manager – Command Line Interface

UCSM's command line is different from Cisco's regular IOS and even NXOS (Nexus is the base platform of FIs that runs UCSM). UCSM CLI does provide the same tab completion options as IOS and NXOS. You can either SSH to log in remotely or log in locally through the console access to the FI for getting access to the UCS CLI.

Each UCS component can be configured using the GUI or CLI commands. Each GUI tab and each component present in the infrastructure and represented in the GUI has an equivalent CLI configuration command. You can navigate through various UCS components using the scope command.
