Appendix B CLI Provides ASCII-based Interface
The command line interface (CLI) provides access to the ATTO XstreamCORE Services through a set of ASCII commands. CLI commands may
be entered while in CLI mode.
XstreamCORE Services provide configuration and monitoring
for the XstreamCORE. The command line interface (CLI) is a
set of ASCII-based commands which perform these tasks. CLI
commands may be entered while in CLI mode.
CLI commands are context sensitive and generally follow a
standard format: [Get|Set] Command
[Parameter1|Parameter2] followed by the return or enter
key
CLI commands are case insensitive: you may type all upper or
all lower case or a mixture. Upper and lower case in this
manual and the help screen are for clarification only.
Commands generally have three types of operation: get, set
and immediate.
The get form returns the value of a parameter or setting and
is an informational command.
Responses to get commands are followed by Ready.
The set form is an action that changes the value of a
parameter or configuration setting. It may require a
SaveConfiguration command and a restart of the system
before it is implemented. The restart can be accomplished as
part of the SaveConfiguration command or by using a
separate FirmwareRestart command. A number of set
commands may be issued before the SaveConfiguration
command.
Responses to set commands are either an error message or
Ready. *. The asterisk indicates you must use a
SaveConfiguration command to finalize the set command.
SaveConfiguration asks if you want to restart the system or
not.
Set commands which do not require a SaveConfiguration
command, defined as immediate commands, are executed.
Responses to Immediate commands are either an error
message or data results followed
by Ready.
