Working in the CLI
Entering Names for Equalizer Objects
Equalizer identifies administrative objects, such as clusters and servers, by name. The characters
used in names are limited to standard ASCII letters ("A" through "Z" and "a" through "z"),
numbers (0 through 9), and the characters "
. " (period), " - " (dash) and " _ " (underscore), (*)
asterisk, (@) "at" sign, and (/) backslash.
l
The first character in a name must be a letter.
l
Names can be at most 65 characters long.
l
The readability of lists presented in the interface is increased by using short names that use
as many unique characters at the beginning of the name as possible.
Using White Space in a Command Line
The CLI uses white space (i.e., one or more tab or space characters) as a delimiter between
command line elements. To include spaces within a command line element (such as a string, a list
of objects, or multiple flags), the entire element must be contained in double quotes. For
example, this command line uses a space between the two server instances and two flags
specified:
eqcli > srvpool sp01 si “sv01, sv02” flags “hot_spare, quiesce”
