Chapter 2 Managing the GSS from the CLI

Managing GSS Files

This section describes how to manage the files included in a directory or

subdirectory on a GSS device. This section includes the following procedures:

• Displaying the Contents of a File

• Displaying Files in a Directory

• Renaming GSS Files

• Securely Copying Files

• Deleting Files

Displaying the Contents of a File

You can view the contents of a GSS file and monitor functions such as transaction

logging or system logging using the system.log file. Use the tail and type CLI

commands to view the contents of a file in a GSS directory. These two commands

provide you with flexibility when displaying the file contents.

• To display the last 10 lines of a file within any GSS file directory, use the tail

filename command. Use this command to display the end of a file within any

GSS file directory.

• To display the entire contents of a file within any GSS file directory, use the

type filename command.

The filename variable identifies the name of the file in the GSS file directory. To

view the files available in the current directory or subdirectory, use the dir, lls, ls,

or pwd commands. See the

“Displaying Files in a Directory” section for details.
