command used in combination with the do show stack-unit all stack-ports all pfc details |

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.
