KB45030: How to list project sources when using Command Manager's Interactive Mode in MicroStrategy Command Manager 9.4.x - 10.x

There may be a situation which requires users to run commands against a project source in order to perform some administrative tasks, but the project source details are not specifically known. In the event that this requirement needs to be met on a machine in which the user can only use the command prompt, then this can become a problem if the user performing the tasks does not know the exact name of the project source.  In such a scenario, the following steps need to be performed:

 

1.  Enable Interactive Mode In the command prompt by typing:  

cmdmgr -interactive

Note: The command "mstrcmdmgr -interactive" can be used in Linux in order to enable Interactive Mode. 

 Once in Interactive Mode, type out the following command: 

LISTPSN; EXEC


3.  Notice that a list of all 3-tier project sources to connect to displays.

 

This command can be useful if multiple tasks need to be performed in multiple project sources in which the exact names are not known off hand.  The reason this is useful is because the command line version of MicroStrategy Command Manager 9.4.x - 10.x has the following syntax, in which the project source name must be known:   

cmdmgr -n "project source name" -u "user name" -p "password"
 

As a result, this command cannot be used in the standard command line syntax.  In addition, this command will not work in MicroStrategy Command Manager in GUI because a user is prompted with the project source to connect to when they open the application.  Therefore, listing project source names is only possible within interactive Mode.
