Italicized Font
Italicized font is used to represent text that you enter using information that is unique to your installation (for example, variables). It is used for server paths and names and account IDs.
Square or Straight Brackets
Square (or straight) brackets [] are used to enclose optional parameters. For example, in this document you will see the usage for the iimadmin command described as follows:
iimadmin [options] [action] [component]
The presence of [options], [arguments], and [component] indicates that there are optional parameters that may be added to the iimadmin command.
Command-Line Prompts
Command-line prompts (for example, % for a C-Shell, or $ for a Korn or Bourne shell) are not displayed in the examples. Depending on which operating system environment you are using, you will see a variety of different command-line prompts. However, you should enter the command as it appears in the document unless specifically noted otherwise.
