Sun N1 System Manager 1.2 Administration Guide

Special Characters

Depending on the shell you are using to run n1sh in UNIX command mode, some special characters may need to be escaped. For example, in the bash shell, quotes need to be escaped with the backslash character, like this:


$ n1sh set role MyRole description=\"Some Role that \\\"Paul\\\" made up\"

See your specific shell's documentation for detailed information on escaping special characters.

In the n1sh shell mode, you do not have to escape special characters, so the same command described above would look like this:


N1-ok> set role MyRole description="Some Role that \"Paul\" made up"
