The help command
To get help with the CLI, enter help at the CLI prompt, and then enter one or more help items, as follows:
=> help <item1> [item2] [item3]
A help item can be any of the following:
A CLI command
An ACU CLI keyword or keyword abbreviation
A CLI parameter
A term commonly used in ACU, such as migrate, extend, or cache
The word shorthand (gives a list of abbreviations for keywords in the CLI)
The help feature of the ACU CLI behaves like a browser search engine in that each item that you add to
the help input string reduces the amount of help output text. For example, help ssp produces extensive
information about SSP, while help ssp modify restricts the help output to information about how the
modify command applies to SSP.

Typical procedures

The following sections describe some common ACU CLI procedures.
Setting the target
If you must perform several operations on a given target device, you can simplify the required commands
by setting the device as the default <target> for the CLI operations.
After you have set the target, any command that you enter in the CLI without a specified <target> is
automatically applied to the set target. If you must also perform operations on other devices, you can still
do so at any time by specifying the <target> for each of those operations as usual. You can also
change the set target or clear it completely. The set target is automatically cleared when you close the CLI.
IMPORTANT:
Syntax:
set target <target>
where <target> is a controller, array, or logical drive.
("The <command>
variable" on page 56)
You cannot use the set target command in batch file scripts.

abbreviations" on page 57)
