Page 7: Command Line Interface
Command Line Interface Overview The NAS cluster solution Command Line Interface (CLI) provides a convenient way to manage the NAS cluster solution. It can be used to configure subsystems, manage administrative users, enable licensed features, and to monitor the system. The CLI contains a set of commands to view, edit, add, delete, enable, disable, and set NAS cluster solution entities, such as exports, shares, volumes, and accounts. -
