The QConvergeConsole CLI manages iSCSI, Ethernet, and Fibre Channel 
functions on QLogic Fibre Channel adapters, Intelligent Ethernet Adapters, and 
Converged Network Adapters. This chapter describes how to start the 
QConvergeConsole CLI using the noninteractive mode (command line interface) 
and the interactive mode (menu-driven interface). 

Noninteractive mode is a command line interface that executes a command and 
its parameters, and then terminates. Use the noninteractive mode to run 
QConvergeConsole CLI from a script file or when you want to perform a single 
operation. This guide describes the noninteractive mode commands by function in 
the following chapters:



Chapter 4 NIC Noninteractive Commands



Chapter 5 Fibre Channel Noninteractive Commands



Chapter 6 iSCSI Noninteractive Commands

To start the noninteractive QConvergeConsole CLI in Windows

 or Linux, open an 

operating system shell, and then type commands with command line switches. 
For specific command formats, refer to the chapter for the corresponding adapter 
function. For example, to discover iSCSI ports on a Converged Network Adapter, 
issue the following command:

QConvergeConsole CLI is case sensitive. In addition, file names in some 
operating systems are case sensitive; in this case, QConvergeConsole CLI is 
case sensitive for that specific file.

For Windows 2008 or later, use administrator mode.
