MobileFirst 7.1 - How to use CLI for current installed Liberty Core with MobileFirst server

Question

I recently installed Liberty Core server, created a new Profile, installed MobileFirst Platform Server and deployed a MobileFirst runtime environment with the Server Configuration Tool in MacBook.

Instead of installing in default directory(Application/ibm/*) I choose to install under custom directory (Users/username/LibertyCore).

I started the server manually installed adapters and *.wlapp from worklight console.

Instead of doing this manual deployment I want to do it from command line? My understanding is I have to use MFP command line utility.

I installed MFP CLI utility then parsed to the App Project folder to build and deploy to currently installed Liberty Core server I see issue with MFP PUSH it says server is not started though server is running.

So when I do MFP Info I found that CLI is pointing to completely different set up. How can I make CLI to point to currently installed Liberty Server.

Note that you can run "mfp help" to see all available CLI commands.

There is the command "mfp server". Using this command you can add additional server definitions: "mfp server add". Run the command and follow the on-screen instructions to add a server definition for your remote server...

Once you've added it, you can use "mfp push your-remote-server-name" to push the artifacts to the remote server.
