Connecting to the CLI using OpenSSH

You can connect to the command-line interface (CLI) using OpenSSH.

To connect to a clustered system using a username and SSH password, issue:

ssh username@my_system

To use an SSH key, issue:

-i full_path_to_key

Where my_system is the name of the system IP, full_path_to_key is the full path to the key file that was generated in the previous step, and username is the user name that you want to use on IBM Spectrum Virtualize™.

Note: You can omit -i full_path_to_key if you configure the SSH client to use the key file automatically. For more SSH information, refer to the OpenSSH documentation.
