Chapter 8. Managing And Monitoring Protectier Through The Cli; Understanding The Syntax Diagrams - IBM TS7650G User Manual

Chapter 8. Managing and monitoring ProtecTIER through the
CLI
This chapter describes how to query and configure the system via the command
line interface (CLI), and to receive various statistics about the ProtecTIER system.
This information can provide valuable insight to the administrator on the
performance, capacity, configuration and operation of the system, and can be
accessed by other management applications.
A CLI is provided for adminstrators who either prefer a text interface or want to
automate capture of statistical information.

Understanding the syntax diagrams

A syntax diagram uses symbols to represent the elements of a command and to
specify the rules for using these elements.
