Formatting CLI commands

Double quotation marks (" ") that are used as part of a name or label require special consideration when you run the CLI commands and the script commands on a Windows or Linux operating system.

When double quotation marks (" ") are part of a name or value, you must insert a backslash (\) before each double quotation mark character. For example:

            -c "set storageArray userLabel=\"Engineering\";"

        

In this example, "Engineering" is the storage array name. A second example is:

            -n \"My\"_Array

        

In this example, "My"_Array is the name of the storage array.

You cannot use double quotation marks (" ") as part of a character string (also called string literal) within a script command. For example, you cannot enter the following string to set the storage array name to "Finance" Array:

            -c "set storageArray userLabel=\"\"Finance\"Array\";"

        

In a Windows operating system, if you do not use double quotation marks (" ") around a name, you must insert a caret ( ^ ) before each special script character. Special characters are ^, | , <, and >.

Insert a caret before each special script character when used with the terminals -n , -o , -f , and -p . For example, to specify storage array CLI>CLIENT, enter this string:

            -n CLI^>CLIENT

        

Insert one caret (^) before each special script character when used within a string literal in a script command. For example, to change the name of a storage array to FINANCE_|_PAYROLL, enter the following string:

            -c "set storageArray userLabel=\"FINANCE_^|_PAYROLL\";"
