Command Line Interface

Overview

The PowerVault NX3500 Command Line Interface (CLI) provides a
convenient way to manage the PowerVault NX3500 system. It can be used to
configure subsystems, manage administrative users, enable licensed features,
and to monitor the system. The CLI contains a set of commands to view, edit,
add, delete, enable, disable, and set PowerVault NX3500 entities, such as
exports, shares, volumes, and accounts.
From the CLI, you can enter a specific menu and then execute its commands,
as required. The following commands are available throughout the system:
•
help
: lists the currently available menus or commands. At any moment
while using the CLI, you can either type "help" or type "
?"
to see the
available options/menus.
•
back
: moves back one level in the menus hierarchy.
•
main
: returns to the main menu.
•
exit
: exits the PowerVault NX3500 CLI.
