scripting issues in 3.1.3 CLI
Posted: Wed Jun 18, 2014 7:05 am
So the 3.1.3 CLI has some new behavior that can seriously impact any automated scripts you may be running unattended. When you run the CLI the first time against a given array you are prompted about the arrays certificate and the option to cache the certificate locally. Some issues arise with this; the first is if you upgrade to 3.1.3 CLI you automate scripts will fail until you cache the certificate. The second is the cached certificate on a Windows box is stored in a directory under the user account for the user accepting the certificate. As you can see this is very problematic for any type of automated scripting. The good news is so far you can use the 3.1.2 CLI against a 3.1.3 array so this avoids the issue in the short term.
