Instruction on how to install can be found here :

The command to execute according to the manual is :
NaviSECCli.exe -h <ip address> sc_off
But when running it also as admin you get :
Turn out some command you have to run with –messner at the end, so the right way is to run :
You can enter engineering mode in Unisphere on an EMC array by holding down CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + F12. Enter the password: messner
