Entering commands

Operations Manager requires specific formats when entering commands. Commands consist of a single command and, optionally, one or more operand keywords and their values. Each operand consists of an operand keyword and an operand value.

Below is a basic example of a command input format using parentheses:

COMMAND KEYWORD1(operand value),KEYWORD2(operand value),KEYWORD3(operand (value),KEYWORD4('operand (value')

Starting with V1R6 of Operations Manager, new syntax rules are applied that eliminate the use of most parentheses. Below is an example of a command input format without the parentheses:

COMMAND KEYWORD1 value KEYWORD2 value KEYWORD3 'a value with a space must be limited' KEYWORD4 'value " with a quote'
