Is there a difference for Solace CLI Commands in PubSub+ Cloud / Software Event Broker / Appliance

barisbt

Is there a differences in terms of Solace CLI commands among PubSub+ Cloud / Software Event Broker / Appliance?
I cannot find some commands mentioned in the help pages when I connect to CLI in PubSub+ Cloud?

Thank you

Aaron

Hi @barisbt..! So: the admin SEMP/CLI users you can access using Solace Cloud are restricted to their own VPNs… the broker-level / system-level commands available in the hardware appliance and software broker are not available to Solace Cloud users. Things like: networking, hardware, message spool configuration, etc.

For Solace Cloud, you can only do things / see things / edit things that are inside your own Message VPN. If you are in CLI, you can always hit [TAB] twice, to see what options are available to you at any level. For example:

solace1040> en

solace1040# con

solace1040(configure)#

acl-profile        bridge             client-username    distributed-cache

jndi               message-spool      message-vpn        username

web-manager

Or, you can do show and then [TAB] [TAB]

solace1040(configure)# show

acl-profile              authentication           bridge

cache-cluster            cache-instance           client

client-profile           client-username          clock

config-sync              current-config           distributed-cache

home-cache-cluster       hostname                 jndi

kerberos                 message-spool            message-vpn

paging                   queue                    queue-template

replay-log               replicated-topic         sequenced-topic

session                  smrp                     ssl

telemetry                topic-endpoint           topic-endpoint-template

transaction              web-manager

There's also the tree command to see all options available.

There isn't any specific section in the docs about the differences between the two types of user accounts / access, but our docs team will address this based on your query.

Let us know if this helps, or what exactly you're trying to do!

Hi @Aaron ,

That is what I thought and that really explained & helped thank you.

Things like showing the logs I think isn't available in the Solace cloud but the Solace Software Broker.

Can I ask what is the recommended way to get / see the logs in the Solace Cloud?

Thank you,

Baris

Wah, I never wrote back to this! Sorry. Best way to get broker logs out of Solace Cloud is to configure an external Syslog server. This can be found under the Management tab in Cloud Console, top-right Advanced Options.

I have a couple various Syslog config options to help with getting started with an external Syslog server. Check them out here: https://github.com/aaron-613/solace-logging-config
