Summary: This section of documentation provides an explanation of how to run analyses, generate snapshots and run other CAST Management Studio tasks in an automated and repeatable way.

Prerequisites

Before you can starting using the CAST Management Studio CLI, you must ensure that you meet the following requirements:

An installation of CAST AIP is required - either a Full Installation or a All Application Intelligence Platform Applications installation which must be located on the machine you wish to run the CLI from.

How does it work?

The CAST Management Studio CLI includes multiple command arguments to perform various different actions including:

Accept Delivery
Reject Delivery
Automate Delivery
Delete a Version
Set as current Version
Run an analysis
Generate a snapshot including upload snapshot to Measurement Service schema
Delete a snapshot
Delete snapshots in a list
Delete snapshots within a range
Import / Export .pmx files
Prepare a Snapshot (prepare Analysis Service for snapshot generation (only required when using the CAST Architecture Checker/CAST Transaction Configuration Center and you have used the RunAnalysis option))
Generate Hsq Report
Configure platform preferences (set the license key, Delivery and Deployment folders)
Clean up Analysis Units
Remove unassociated Assessment Models
Manage / Stop Managing an Application (import an Application from the Delivery folder that has been created by the Application owner (in the CAST AIC Portal) and populated with a Version (including source code packages) or stop managing an Application)
Run an upgrade for an Assessment Model
Activate a Measurement Service schema for the current Management Service schema
Upload snapshots to Measurement Service schema
Import an Assessment Model
Purge a Version

To execute an action via the command line, you must specify the CAST-MS-CLI.exe executable (rather than the CAST-MS.exe executable which is used for the GUI). Command arguments are expressed as verbs and then various mandatory and optional (enclosed in square brackets) options. Each command argument verb and various examples is listed and explained below.

Miscellaneous information

Boolean format: [true|false]
String format: enclose with double quotes if containing blank spaces
Date format: [yyyyMMdd|yyyyMMddHHmm]
The examples listed below should be placed on one line if they are being used in a batch file.
Use the -help command to list all possible parameters for an argument, for example:

CAST-MS-CLI.exe GenerateSnapshot -help

Output codes

The CLI will return two output codes:

0 = No error
2 = Error exists

Command arguments

AcceptDelivery

Use this option to automate the acceptance of a Version.

Examples

Accepts delivery of a version named "4.4.0.2575 delta 2":

CAST-MS-CLI.exe AcceptDelivery -connectionProfile CAST_MNGT -appli "TEST" -version "4.4.0.2575 delta 2" -logRootPath "C:\CAST\Log"

Available options

connectionProfile<string>	Specifies the name of connection profile to use to connect to the CAST Management Service.
appli<string>	Specifies the parent Application of the Version you want to accept.
version<string>	Specifies the name of the Version you want to accept.
[sourceServerRootPath<string>]	Source Code Delivery Folder - a central location for storing successive and compressed versions of applications' source code as packaged by the Delivery Manager(s). Please see Preferences - Platform Settings for more information.
[codeResourceBasePath<string>]	Source Code Deployment Folder - a location used exclusively by the CAST Management Studio to store the most recent version of the applications' source code for analysis in uncompressed format. Please see Preferences - Platform Settings for more information.
[logRootPath<string>]	Specifies the log root path folder. An absolute path is required. You can use either back or forward slashes. Please see Preferences - Platform Settings for more information.

ActivateManagementService

Use this option to activate a given Measurement Service (MEASURE schema) for the Management Service (MNGT schema) defined in the connection profile. When the Measurement Service is active, it is the target for any snapshot data that is generated in any Application associated with the parent Management Service (MNGT database), when you chose to upload snapshot data to the Measurement Service.

If you installed all four CAST AIP schemas using a Combined Install option in CAST Server Manager, then the Measurement Service will automatically be active for the Management Service installed at the same time and there is no need to use this option.
If you have installed the Measurement Service after you installed the three CAST AIP schemas (Management/Analysis/Dashboard Services) you will have installed a standalone Measurement Service in CAST Server Manager (for use with the Health Dashboard). In this case the Measurement Service is NOT automatically active for the current Management Service (MNGT database) and you will need to make it active by using this option (or the equivalent GUI option).

Examples

Activation of a Measurement Service "XXX_MEASURE" associated with the Application "TEST".

CAST-MS-cli.exe activateManagementService -connectionProfile CAST_MNGT -appli "TEST" -measureService "XXX_MEASURE" -logRootPath "C:\CAST\Log"

Available options

Discoverer

Description

HTML5 project

This discoverer is provided in the Web Files Discoverer, which is shipped and installed by default with CAST AIP as part of the upgrade and with new AIP schemas. When enabled, Web File Discoverer (i.e. HTML5 projects) projects will be identified and corresponding Analysis Units will be generated. All files "captured" in these "HTML5 project" Analysis Units will be analyzed (predominately HTML and JavaScript files).

XML scanner

This discoverer is provided in the DMT Framework Scanner, which is shipped and installed by default with CAST AIP as part of the upgrade and with new AIP schemas. When enabled, the information generated by the DMT Framework Scanner extension can be seen in the CAST Delivery Manager Delivery Report for existing packages that have been upgraded.

Both discoverers can be enabled (separate them with a semi-colon - ;), just one, or none at all. For example:

-discoverers "HTML5 project;XML scanner"
-discoverers "HTML5 project"
-discoverers "XML scanner"

Note that:

This option is only of use if the Web Files Discoverer and DMT Framework Scanner options were not ticked in the CAST Delivery Manager Tool in the existing package. This may be the case if the Application and Version/Packages have been upgraded from a previous release of CAST AIP where these discoverers were not installed.
After enabling the option, when consulting the CAST Delivery Manager Tool, the two corresponding options will be ticked:

[copySources[<boolean>]]

Use this option ONLY when copying the "Migrated Version" version that is produced following an upgrade. Do not use at any other time.

DeleteVersion

Use this option to automate the deletion of a Version. When a version is deleted:

All references to the Version are permanently deleted - this includes extracted source code, logs and configuration files in the Delivery folder
Deployed source code remains in the Deployment folder.
This option cannot be reversed.
This option is the equivalent of the following GUI option:

If the Version to be deleted has been used as the basis for a later Version (i.e. the Version has been copied) then it is not possible to delete it. The message "The version cannot be deleted as it is used as a previous version in: xxx" will be displayed.

Examples

Deletes the version named "4.4.0.2575 delta 2":

GenerateSnapshot

Please note that CAST supports concurrent snapshot generation on the same workstation (whether through GUI/CLI) with the following conditions:

Click here to expand...

only one active execution for a given application/triplet should be run at any one time
you should ensure that you configure application/triplet specific values for the following CAST locations:
- TEMP (User's temporary path)
- LTSA
- LISA
- LOG

This can be achieved by:

defining an application/triplet specific Windows environment variable (for example %APPLICATION%)
using this Windows variable in the CastGlobalSettings.ini file (ensuring you uncomment the variable in the CastGlobalSettings.ini file)
changing the Windows variable path each time you generate a snapshot for a specific application/triplet

For example, set the following in the CastGlobalSettings.ini file:

; Set current user's temporary path
CAST_CURRENT_USER_TEMP_PATH=%APPLICATION%\CAST_TMP

; Set root path of all CAST logs
CAST_LOG_ROOT_PATH=%APPLICATION%\CAST_LOG
 
; Set the default LISA location
CAST_DEFAULT_LISA_DIR=%APPLICATION%\CAST_STORAGE
 
; Set the default LTSA location
CAST_DEFAULT_LTSA_DIR=%APPLICATION%\CAST_STORAGE

This option is used to generate a new snapshot from the command line.

CLI option

Description

Equivalent GUI Option

progressive

These two options will preserve the current Assessment Model assigned to your CAST Dashboard Service schemas and merge in any new rules delivered with the new CAST AIP Assessment Model - depending on your option choice, these new rules will either be activated (provides the benefits of the new release with all options actived) or disabled (therefore making post upgrade results more stable and in-line with the previous release of CAST AIP but not benefiting from updates in the new release).

If you have chosen either of these options, the following Assessment Model values will be retained:

the status of active/inactive Quality Rules
thresholds
weights
critical contributions
parameter values
custom indicators
custom Quality Rules

However, the Assessment Model will still be subject to an upgrade process to modify some values to make them compatible with CAST AIP 8.2.x, for example:

SQL and property implements
applicable technologies
associate values
documentation

Preserve Assessment Model customizations, activate new rules from AIP <release>

conservative

Preserve Assessment Model customizations, leave new rules disabled

true

If you have chosen this option, the new Assessment Model from the new release of CAST AIP will be assigned to the CAST Dashboard Service schemas selected for update, therefore replacing any existing Assessment Models.

Use default Assessment Model from CAST AIP <release>
