FSE user interfaces
FSE command-line interface
Introduction to the FSE command-line interface
The FSE command-line interface provides commands that can be used to perform standard tasks:
configure, monitor, and manage the FSE implementation. The commands are passed to FSE through the
Management Interface, responsible for accepting, handling, and executing requests for user actions.
Linux specific
To use FSE commands, you must be logged on to the system as “root”.
Windows specific
To use FSE commands, you need administrative privileges. These privileges are granted only if you are
either locally logged to the system as Administrator (recommended) or using a remote access software that
supports logging in with the real Administrator account. The Windows native Remote Desktop tool, for
example, may be unsuitable for these tasks, since it uses a different Administrator account when logging in
remotely.
FSE command option syntax is based on standard Linux and UNIX command syntax. Typically, on
Windows platform, options start with a ‘/’ character, while FSE command syntax demands a ‘--’ string as
the option prefix.
All FSE commands include brief online help that lists a synopsis of available options. For example, if you
want to see help for the fsepartition command, you would use:
