Formatting Considerations

Quotation marks (" ") used as part of a name or label require special consideration when you run the CLI and script commands on a Microsoft Windows operating system. The following explains the use of quotation marks in names while running CLI and script commands on Windows.

When quotation marks (" ") are part of an argument, you must insert a backslash (\) before each quotation mark character unless you are in interactive mode. For example:

-c "set storageArray userLabel=\"Engineering\";"

where, Engineering is the storage array name.

You cannot use quotation marks (" ") as part of a character string (also called string literal) within a script command. For example, you cannot enter the following string to set the storage array name to "Finance"Array:

-c "set storageArray userLabel= \"\"Finance\"Array\";"

On a Linux operating system, the delimiters around names or labels are single quotation marks (‘ ’). The Linux versions of the previous examples are:

-c ‘set storageArray userLabel="Engineering";’

Detailed Error Reporting

Error data collected from an error encountered by the CLI is written to a file. Detailed error reporting under the CLI works as follows:

•If the CLI must abnormally end execution or abort script command execution, error data is collected and saved before the CLI aborts.
