NOTE: The capacity parameter returns an error if you specify a value greater than or equal to 10 without a
space separating the numeric value and its unit of measure. (For example, 10 GB returns an error, but 9 GB does
not return an error).

Adding Comments To A Script File

You can add comments to a script file in three ways:

The script engine interprets as a comment any text typed after two forward slashes (/ /) until an end

‑of‑line

character is reached. If the script engine does not find an end

‑of‑line character in the script after processing a

comment, an error message is displayed, and the script operation is terminated. This error commonly occurs

when a comment is placed at the end of a script and you have not pressed <Enter>.
// Deletes the existing configuration.

clear storageArray Configuration;

The script engine interprets any text typed between / * and * / as a comment. If the script engine does not find

both a beginning and ending comment notation, an error message is displayed, and the script operation is

terminated.
/* Deletes the existing configuration */

clear storageArray Configuration;

Use the show statement to embed comments in a script file that you want to display while the script file is

running. Enclose the text you want to display in quotation marks (" ").
show "Deletes the existing configuration";

clear storageArray Configuration;
