Maintenance Commands
This chapter provides ad ditional trouble-clearing information for resolving both

commands are used to c ontrol, test, and obtain information assoc iated with
maintenance objects (MOs). The com mands require the use of the administration
terminal or remote Initialization and Ad ministration System (INADS) interface and
a valid login and p assword.
