HP Smart Storage Admin CLI (`ssacli`) installation and usage on Proxmox PVE (6.x)

Why use HP Smart Storage Admin CLI?

You can use ssacli (smart storage administrator command line interface) tool to manage any of supported HP Smart Array Controllers in your Proxmox host without need to reboot your server to access Smart Storage Administrator in BIOS. That means no host downtime when managing your storage.

CLI is not as convenient as GUI interface provided by BIOS or desktop utilities, but still allows you to fully manage your controller, physical disks and logical drives on the fly with no Proxmox host downtime.

ssacli replaces older hpssacli, but shares the same syntax and adds support for newer servers and controllers.

Installation

GPG - SSH setup

Generating the master key

Here we create the master key. We want only Certify capability: we use the master key only to create the subkeys, Sign - Encrypt - Authenticate capabilities will be assigned to the subkeys.

Run the following command to start the master key generation process. Select the set your own capabilities creation process (type 8)

  ▶ gpg --full-generate-key --expert

Using a Mikrotik router to boot and install Windows

Lately I've been using Mikrotik routers because they're cheap, powerful, and fast. Most of them have either a USB or MicroSD slot, so you can add enough space to store network boot images right on the router.

I got most of the tips needed from these two articles, and combined them into this step by step guide:

Creating Neat .NET Core Command Line Apps

You can now read this on my (pretty) website! Check it out here.

Every reason to get more HackerPoints™ is a good one, so today we're going to write a neat command line app in .NET Core! The Common library has a really cool package Microsoft.Extensions.CommandlineUtils to help us parse command line arguments and structure our app, but sadly it's undocumented.

No more! In this guide, we'll explore the package and write a really neat
