Commands with Column Help
Column help is provided for some commands to clarify the meaning of each column of data by
defining the meaning of the column headers.
Access column help as follows:
cli% clihelp –col <command>
When column help is not available, the following message appears:
No help for columns of command “<command>”.
Using SSL
The HP 3PAR OS provides a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol for secure transfer of data between
the CLI client and system, and is set with either of the following:
• The TPDSOCKSSL environment variable.
• The -sockssl global option.
NOTE: This is the default behavior. TPDSOCKSSL and -sockssl are present for compatibility.
The -nosockssl option overrides this behavior.
The HP 3PAR CLI uses port number 5783 for secure communications and port 5782 for unsecured
communications. When the TPDSOCKSSL environment variable or -sockssl global option is set,
the socket port defaults to 5783.
