About the Script Commands

Brackets

A list of identifiers

NOTE:

You can use any combination of alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and

underscores for the names. Command names can have a maximum of 30
characters. If you exceed the maximum character limit, replace square brackets
([ ]) with angle brackets (< >) to overcome this limitation.

Use an object type when the command is not referencing a specific object.
The all parameter means all objects of the specified type in the storage array
(for example, allVirtualDisks).

To perform a command on a specific object, use brackets to identify the
object (for example, virtualDisk[engineering]). Specify a subset of objects
with a list of identifiers in brackets (for example, virtualDisks[sales
engineering marketing]). In a list of identifiers, use a blank space as the
delimiter. A qualifier is necessary if you want to include additional
information to describe the objects.

Table 2-2 lists the object type and identifiers associated with the object types.
