Command Reference Overview
Structure of this Guide
This guide documents each ExtremeWare XOS command. Related commands are grouped together and
organized into chapters based on their most common usage. The chapters reflect the organization of the
ExtremeWare XOS Concepts Guide. If a specific command is relevant to a wide variety of functions and
could be included in a number of different chapters, we have attempted to place the command in the
most logical chapter. Within each chapter, commands appear in alphabetical order. You can use the
Index of Commands to locate specific commands if they do not appear where you expect to find them.
For each command, the following information is provided:
