The Structure of CLI Commands

Whether invoked through cr_cli or cr_clij, all CLI commands use the following format:

subsystem.object.command
arguments

For example, the command for adding a host to the database is hdb.h.add. This command consists three elements that identify:

• a subsystem, in this case the host database (hdb)

• an object to operate on, in this case a host (h)

• a command or operation, in this case adding (add)
