About the Admin Tool

The Service Registry Administration Tool provides a simple command-line interface for common administration tasks, such as adding associations to the Registry and removing objects from the Registry.

The tool can operate in either of two modes:

• In batch mode, you specify one or more commands on the tool’s command line.

• In interactive mode, you enter commands in the tool’s interactive shell.

Several commands, such as ls and rm, mimic both the name and the behavior of well-known UNIX® commands that operate on files and folders. Other commands have no corresponding UNIX equivalent.
