For a list of all commands currently available, press the Tab key twice at the prompt.

In Standard mode, for example, press the Tab key twice to list these commands:

Command Modes

The CLI can be in one of three modes, which determine the set of commands that can be executed.

Commands that are not currently available do not show in help or completion, and generally behave

as if they do not exist.

Standard Mode

When the CLI is launched, it begins in Standard mode. This is the most restrictive mode and only

has commands to query a restricted set of state information. In this mode you cannot take any

actions that would directly affect the system, nor can you change any configuration.

User accounts with the unpriv role are restricted to Standard mode.

Enable Mode

The

enable

command moves the CLI to Enable mode. This mode has commands to view all state

information and take certain kinds of actions, such as rebooting the system or configuring some

system parameters, but it excludes commands that configure the cluster. Its commands are a

superset of those in Standard mode. The

disable

command moves the CLI from Enable mode

back to Standard mode.

The

exit

command (in Enable mode) closes the CLI.

User accounts with the

monitor

role can use all Enable mode commands.

show<tab>

Lists options of the show command that can immediately follow the

show

keyword.

sh<tab><tab>

Completes the

show

keyword and lists options of the show command.

s<tab><tab>

Lists all available commands that begin with the letter "s".
