FW 05.01.00 and SW 07.01.00 HP StorageWorks CLI Reference Guide for Directors and Edge Switches (AA-RQ7AD-TE, June 2003)

Introduction
25CLI Reference Guide for Directors and Edge Switches
Commands are shown, with the exception of the zoning commands, in
alphabetical order to make them easier to locate. Although the commands can be
entered in any order, depending on the results desired, the order shown in Table 3
on page 20 for the zoning commands is a typical order in which the zoning
commands are entered.
Note that the order in which commands are entered determines the order in which
the show commands display the values. Refer to Chapter 2 for examples of show
commands output.
Navigation of the CLI Command Tree
Once the administrator or operator logs in and receives the Root> prompt, the
CLI commands are accessed by navigating up and down the CLI command tree.
To move from the root through the any of the four extended branches, enter the
name of the next branch as shown in Table 3 on page 20. For example, to use the
config.port.name command to configure the name for port 4 on the edge
switch, this series of commands is entered:
Root> config
Config> port
Config.Port> name 4 “HP Tape Drive”
At this point, to enter the maint.port.beacon command to set the beaconing
state of port 4, the following series of commands is entered:
Config.Port> ..
Config> ..
Root> maint
Maint> port
Maint.Port> beacon 4 true
Note: You must return all the way to the root of the tree to transition to another
extended branch. When traversing back to the root, the name of each branch cannot
be used. Instead use the double-dot command (two periods) to move back towards the
root. Only one double-dot command may be entered at a time.
