Target
A target specifies the managed element on which the verb operates (refer to
the ePower CLI Managed Elements Hierarchy section, for the managed
elements structure). Managed elements use a tree structure for the
grouping of elements within branches. All elements are under “/”,
or the root node.
To reach a given element, specify it using one of the following methods:
• Absolute path from the root
• Relative path from the current working target
The special symbols shown in Table A-1, used in standard UNIX file path
notation, can be used to specify path elements.
Example 1: If the current element is /dir1/dir2, the following target entries
all access the same target.
• ePower:/dir1/dir2--> xyz
• ePower:/dir1/dir2--> ./xyz
• ePower:/dir1/dir2--> /dir1/dir2/xyz
Example 2: The following target entries access the element dir1.
• ePower:/dir1/dir2--> ..
• ePower:/dir1/dir2--> ./..
• ePower:/dir1/dir2--> /dir1
Example 3: The target in this sample command is
“/system1/settings”.
ePower:/--> show -d properties -l all /system1/settings address==10.0.3.120
