Getting Help on JCS Commands

The JCS management module CLI includes a help command you can use to get a list of available commands or to get help on individual commands.

  • For a list of available commands, enter the help command. For example:
    system> help
    ? – Display commands
    accseccfg — View/edit account security config
    advfailover — View/edit advanced failover mode
    alarm — Manage Telco System Management alarm(s)
    alertcfg — Displays/Configures the global remote alert systems
    alertentries — View/edit remote alarm receipients
    baydata — View/edit Blade Bay Data string
    ...
    
  • For help on individual commands, enter command -help, where command is the name of the command for which you want help. For example:
    system> clock -help
    usage:
       clock [-options]
    options:
       -d    - date (mm/dd/yyyy)
       -t    - time (hh:mm:ss)
       -g    - GMT offset
       -dst  - daylight savings time (on|off|special case)
    For a GMT offset of +2:00, use one of the following values for dst:
       ee    - Eastern Europe
       gtb   - Great Britain
       egt   - Egypt
       fle   - Finland
       off
    For a GMT offset of +10:00, use one of the following values for dst:
       ea    - Eastern Australia
       tas   - Tasmania
       vlad  - Vladivostok
       off
    For a GMT offset in set {-9:00, -8:00, -7:00, -6:00, -5:00}, use one of the
    following values for dst:
       uc    - USA and Canada
       other - Other locations
       off
    For a GMT offset of -4:00, use one of the following values for dst:
       can   - Canada
       other - Other locations
       off
  • You can also use the ? or -h shortcuts to get help. For example:
    system> clock -h
    system> clock ?
