Docker CLI Reference

Overview of the climanager Service

Command Line Interface

The commands described in this article are executed in the Command Line Interface (CLI) of Legacy orchestrator Docker.

In order to provide users with a familiar interface and reduce training time and the management of Legacy orchestrator Docker, a climanager service (socli) is installed on the host.

Accessing climanager Service to Manage Legacy orchestrator

1. Using an SSH client, log in to your Docker host and execute:

/usr/bin/socli.sh

2. On first use, you will be asked to confirm the connection to localhost on port 2200. For example:

The authenticity of host '[localhost]:2200 ([127.0.0.1]:2200)'
can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is SHA256:FYQGJ....
Are you sure you want to continue connecting
(yes/no/[fingerprint])?

3. Type yes to confirm.
4. Enter the password of skylight user.

For additional security, idle sessions timeout after 10 minutes of inactivity.
