Getting Help

In any command mode, you can get a list of available commands by entering a question mark (?).
switch# ?
To obtain a list of commands that begin with a particular character sequence, type in those characters
followed immediately by the question mark (?). Do not include a space.
switch# co?
configure copy
To list keywords or arguments, enter a question mark in place of a keyword or argument. Include a space
before the question mark. This form of help is called command syntax help, because it reminds you
which keywords or arguments are applicable based on the commands, keywords, and arguments you
have already entered.
switch# config ?
terminal Configure the system from the terminal
If you are having trouble entering a command, check the system prompt and enter the question mark (?)

switch(config-zone)# no member pwwn 12:12:12:12:12:12:12:12
WARNING: Zone is empty. Deleting zone test. Exit the submode.
switch(config-zone)#
Delete a created facility.
If you want to delete a zone that you created:
switch(config)# zone name test vsan 1
switch(config-zone)# exit
switch(config)# no zone name test vsan 1
switch(config)#
You cannot delete a zone facility called test while residing in it. You must first exit the zone
configuration submode and return to configuration mode.
Revert to the default value.
If you issue the zone merge-control restrict vsan command, you can undo the results:
switch(config)# zone zone merge-control restrict vsan 10
switch(config)# no zone merge-control restrict vsan 10
switch(config)#
You can create the configuration for the switch interactively by issuing commands at the CLI
prompt.
You can create an ASCII file containing a switch configuration and then load this file on the required
system. You can then use the CLI to edit and activate the file (see the
Files" section on page 9-1).
