Help Commands

The Help commands provides brief on-line help.

You can get overview help by typing

Help

at the top-level prompt. This lists a

brief definition of commands. (For an example, see the discussion of the
command “help” on page 124.)

You can also get help with specific commands, by typing

help

before an

object name, or by typing a question mark (

?

) at the point in a command

where you are uncertain of the attributes.

Help with specific commands

If you type the help command at the top level, you are considered to be
working in the Shell Object, and the help command provides help on the Shell
commands focus, show, flush, rescan, and commit. Using the help command
on objects (such as /cx, /cx/ux, /cx/px, /cx/bbu, /ex, /ex/slotx, /ex/fanx, and
/ex/tempx), shows all possible subcommands associated with the object.

For example:

Help on the controller object /cx, lists all the subcommands

associated with the controller /cx, as follows:

//localhost> help /cx

/cx show

/cx show attribute [attribute ...] where attribute is:

achip|allunitstatus|autocarve(9KSX/SE/SA)

|bios|driver|firmware|autorebuild(9KSX/SE only)

|carvesize(9KSX/SE/SA|drivestatus|

ctlbus(9KSX/SE/SA)|memory|model|monitor|numdrives|
