Emulex Printer Server User Manual

Command Reference Guide 1

Conventions

This guide provides the correct syntax for commands used with Emulex printer servers containing software release 5.0. This section describes both general and command conventions used in this document and in other printer server documentation.

NOTE: The user must login to the printer server to perform an Emulex printer server command.

Formatting

You will notice text boxes labeled NOTE or CAUTION.

Notes provide additional information.

Caution statements provide warnings to prevent harm to people or equipment.

CAUTION: Observe electrostatic discharge (ESD) procedures during installation.

What is a Command?

A prompt, followed by a keyword and one or more variables, options or quotation marks make up a command. The following explanation will demonstrate the structure and formatting of 5.0 printer server commands.

2 Command Reference Guide

Command Lines

A command line begins with the symbol >, contains the word “Server” and a prompt.

Prompts

A prompt consists of the word Server followed by one or two greater than symbols (>). One (>) indicates nonprivileged status and two (>>) signify privileged or supervisor status. The two prompts are shown below:

Server > (nonprivileged users) Server >> (privileged users)

Nonprivledged users have read only privileges. Privileged or supervisor users have all read and write privileges.

Keywords

Keywords are enclosed in brackets and separated by vertical lines. The user must enter a keyword to perform an action.

>Server>> [set |define |change]

Variables

Variables are used as in mathematics: they represent a quantity, device name, address or other entity. They are shown in bold italic type.

>Server>> [set |define |change] server dhcp n m

n

a variable

m

a variable

Command Reference Guide 3

Options

Options are used to customize a command. When available, the user should always use options. They are italicized and enclosed in brackets.

>Server>> [set |define |change] server dhcp n m

[temp] [default]

temp

an optional entry

default

an optional entry

Quotation Marks

When case-sensitive information is required, it must begin and end with quotation marks. Font names are case-sensitive and must appear in quotes within command lines. The example below illustrates the use of a font name within a command line.

>Server>> change port 1 fonts add “Courier-Bold Helvetica-Italics”

4 Command Reference Guide

Keyword Functions

Keywords either modify data (set, define or change), remove data (clear, purge, or delete), or display requests (show, monitor, or list).

Set, Define And Change

set

Modifications are immediate and temporary

 

(stored in volatile memory). Old port values will

 

return when the port is logged out. Old node,

 

server and service values return when the

 

printer server is reinitialized.

define

Modifications are not immediate but once they

 

take effect, become permanent (stored in non-

 

volatile memory). Modifications to ports take

 

effect when port is logged out. Modifications to

 

nodes, servers and services take effect when

 

the printer server is reinitialized.

change

Modifications are immediate and permanent.

NOTE: Commands which affect non-volatile memory will cause a 30 second delay before nonvolatile memory is updated. If printer server power is removed prior to this, the change will be lost.

 

Command Reference Guide 5

Show, Monitor And List

 

show

Displays current information stored in volatile

 

memory.

monitor

Similar to show, except the display is updated

 

every second for privileged users or every 10

 

seconds for nonprivileged users.

list

Displays information stored in non-volatile

 

memory.

Clear, Purge And Delete

 

clear

Data is removed temporarily, but returns at next

 

reinitialization.

purge

Data is not removed until reinitialization, but then

 

is removed permanently from non-volatile

 

memory.

delete

Data is removed immediately and permanently.
