Working in the CLI
Command Abbreviation and Completion
You do not need to type an entire command name in order to execute a command. If you type
enough characters to uniquely identify a command and then type a
<space>
or
<tab>
character,
eqcli will automatically display the remainder of the command name.
For example, if in the global context you type
cert
and then press the space bar:
eqcli > cert<space>
The CLI fills in the rest of the command line for you, followed by a space:
eqcli > cert ificate <space>
This also works with multiple keywords on the same command line. So, for example, you can type
the following:
eqcli > sh<space>cl<space>
And the CLI will expand this to:
eqcli > show<space>cluster<space>
If the string that you type before pressing
<space>
or
<tab>
does not uniquely identify a
command, then the CLI displays a list of all the commands that match the string you entered, and
then re-displays the string that you typed. For example:
eqcli > c<space>
certificate cluster context crl
eqcli > c
