The echo command allows you to specify whether the dscli will echo each specified command, or to display a user-specified string.
If echo is turned on, each command will be printed before
it is executed. The echo can also be turned on or off using the dscli
profile file or the setenv command.

Parameters
- on | off | message
- (Optional) Specifies whether the echo is turned on or off, or
if a message is displayed. If it is turned on, each command will be
displayed before it is executed. If it is turned off, the dscli will
not display anything before executing a command. You can also choose
to echo a string of your choice. For example, if you enter echo
something else, the string "something else" will be displayed.
Issuing the echo command without any parameters
will display whether echo is on or off.Note: If the echoprefix variable is set, its value will be printed on the same line preceding the commands that are echoed.
Example

dscli> echo on
The resulting output
