Administer the Enterprise Console

Note: To administer the Enterprise Console via the command line, you must log and establish a valid session with the command ./platform-admin.sh login --user-name=admin --password=password. For complete command line usage, see Enterprise Console Command Line.

You can use the GUI or command line to perform the following platform administration tasks with the Enterprise Console:

  • Create new platforms
  • Remove existing platforms
  • Manage credentials
  • Manage hosts
Note: Some tasks may not be available through both the GUI and command line. Most of the commands described here are based on the Linux command line and cover common tasks for managing the platform. You can run similar commands with the Windows command prompt by replacing the platform-admin.sh script with platform-admin.exe cli.

Run the commands from the <Enterprise Console installation directory>/platform-admin directory. This page contains the minimum options and parameters required to run a command.

Some commands may have more options and parameters. To see these additional options, run the command with -h specified. For example, run the following command to see all the options and parameters for the create a platform command:

Linux
bin/platform-admin.sh create-platform -h
Windows
bin\platform-admin.exe cli create-platform -h
