Chapter 2. CLI Syntax Reference
Note: If you do not enable autoverify for units or start a verification manually, your verify schedule will not run, even if it is enabled with the
/cx set verify=enable command.
Warning: If all time slots are removed, be sure to also disable the schedule.
Otherwise the applicable background task will never occur
/cx add selftest=ddd:hh
This command adds a new background selftest task to be executed on the day
ddd(where ddd is Sun, Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, and Sat), at hour hh
(range 0 .. 23). Notice that selftest runs to completion and as such no duration is provided. A maximum of seven selftest tasks can be scheduled. This command will fail if no (empty) task slot is available.
Example:
//localhost> /c1 add selftest=Sun:16
adds a selftest background task schedule to be executed on Sundays at 16 hours (4:00 PM).
Setting Up a Selftest Schedule
Setting up a selftest schedule requires several steps, and several different CLI commands in addition to /cx add selftest.
To set up the selftest schedule you want to use, follow this process:
1Use the /cx show selftest command to display the current schedule for selftest tasks. (For details, see page 49.)
2If any of the scheduled tasks do not match your desired schedule, use the /cx del selftest command to remove them. (For details, see page 53.)
3Use the /cx add selftest command to create the selftest schedule slots you want (described above.)
4Use the /cx set selftest=enable command to enable the schedule (this enables all selftest schedule slots). (For details, see page 54.)
