Command-line interface messages

The messages that display when you use the command-line interface (CLI) are listed here.

The CLI displays a return value upon completion of the command. If the command completes normally and without error, the return code is 0. If the command fails, the return code is 1 and an error code is sent to standard error. If the command succeeds, but the cluster is operating near its licensed virtualization limit, the return code is still 0, and an event is logged in the event log.

When you issue a create command, the message ID that is assigned to the new object is returned as part of the success message that is sent to standard output. If the -quiet parameter is used, only the message ID is sent.
