HP Virtual Connect 4Gb Fibre Channel Module for c-Class BladeSystem - Manual (Page 82)

Command line 82
• Scriptable output format
The interactive user output format is the default. However, by using a command-line option, the user can also
specify a "parse-friendly" output format, which provides data in a format that can be easily interpreted by
automated scripts invoking the CLI. The different output formats primarily impact the show subcommand in
the CLI infrastructure, where a majority of the informational details are displayed.
Interactive user output format
The interactive user output format provides a user friendly view of information at the command line. When
providing an overview, or listing, of several instances of data, a tabular text format is displayed. If an
individual instance of data is being displayed, then the stanza format is used.
