Options
An option is a general setting that affects how
admconfig
runs. You can specify an
option using a complete command such as
-user
or an abbreviated command such
as
-u
. When specifying a command, make sure to use enough characters to
differentiate it from other commands.
Option commands are not case sensitive. For example, both
-USER
and
-User
are
accepted as the
-user
command. You can use multiple option commands with the
same invocation of
admconfig
. For example, the following option commands
specify that
admconfig
should establish an encrypted connection with
eastcoast.example.com
on port 904.
-enc -ser eastcoast.example.com:904

Options You Can Use With admconfig
Commands for Options What the Command Does
-con[tinueOnError]
Finishes any remaining tasks (that have been specified
on the command line) when an error occurs. (Default
behavior when any task fails is to quit without running
the remaining tasks.)
-enc[ryption]
Uses encrypted HTTP (HTTPS) to connect to the server.
(The default protocol is HTTP.)
-h[elp] [task]
Displays general usage information. Include a task
name for usage information specific to that task.
-i[nputFile] filename
Reads options and tasks from the specified file. You can
specify additional options on the command line. If an
option is present on the command line and in the
specified file, the command-line settings are used. If the
-inputFile
option is present in the specified file, it is
ignored to prevent
admconfig
from reading multiple
sets of options.
-ser[ver] [host]:port
Connects to the server on the specified host and port. If
a host isn’t specified, the local host is used. The server
port number (preceded by the colon) is required.
