Help Commands

Help Commands

The Help commands provides brief on-line help.

You can get overview help by typing Help at the top-level prompt. This displays a brief definition of commands in both the new syntax and the legacy syntax. (For an example, see the discussion of the command “help” on page 85.)

You can also get help with specific commands, by entering help before an object name, or by typing a question mark (?) at the point in a command where you are uncertain what the attributes are.

Help with specific commands

If you enter the help command at the top level, you are considered to be in the Shell Object, and the help command will provide help on the Shell commands focus, show, flush, rescan, and commit. Using the help command on objects (such as /cx, /cx/ux, /cx/px, /cx/bbu, /ex, /ex/slotx, /ex/fanx, and /ex/tempx), displays all possible sub-commands associated with the object.

For example: help on the controller object /cx, will display all the sub- commands associated with the controller /cx, like this:

//localhost> help /cx
/cx show	attribute [attribute ...]	where attribute is:
/cx show
