Quietmode - HP StorageWorks 2/64 - Core Switch Command Reference Manual

quietMode

Sets or clears the telnet session quiet mode, or displays the current mode.
Synopsis
quietmode [mode]
Availability
admin
Description
This command affects the output displayed on the switch console (telnet session only).
By default, quiet mode is off and all switch tasks can send output to the console. Some output is caused
by asynchronous events, such as the fabric reconfiguring or devices logging in.
When quiet mode is on, only output produced by shell commands displays; all asynchronous output
produced by other tasks suppresses. This is useful when driving a telnet session through a script that might
not expect any asynchronous output.
Operands
The following operand is optional:
mode
The current value appears if no operand is specified.
Examples
To display the current mode and then set it to off:
switch:admin> quietMode
quietMode: On
Usage: quietMode 0|1
0: to turn it off
1: to turn it on
switch:admin> quietMode 0
Committing configuration...done
