The find keyword displays the output of the show command beginning from the first occurrence of
specified text. The following example shows this command used in combination with the
show
linecard all command.
Example of the find Keyword
The display command displays additional configuration information.
The no-more command displays the output all at once rather than one screen at a time. This is similar to
the
terminal length command except that the no-more option affects the output of the specified
command only.
The save command copies the output to a file for future reference.
NOTE: You can filter a single command output multiple times. The save option must be the last
option entered. For example: Dell# command | grep regular-expression | except
regular-expression | grep other-regular-expression | find regular-expression
| save.
Multiple Users in Configuration Mode
Dell Networking OS notifies all users when there are multiple users logged in to CONFIGURATION mode.
A warning message indicates the username, type of connection (console or VTY), and in the case of a VTY
connection, the IP address of the terminal on which the connection was established. For example:
• On the system that telnets into the switch, this message appears:
% Warning: The following users are currently configuring the system:
User "<username>" on line console0
• On the system that is connected over the console, this message appears:
% Warning: User "<username>" on line vty0 "10.11.130.2" is in configuration
mode
If either of these messages appears, Dell Networking recommends coordinating with the users listed in
the message so that you do not unintentionally overwrite each other’s configuration changes.
