Power Flow Services High Level Messages and Command Line Options
Power Flow Services High Level Messages
High level messages are available for data maintenance and troubleshooting.
Note: Oracle recommends that you check with Oracle Support before using these options for the first time - especially in a production environment. They could have unintended consequences for application functionality, performance, or environment resource consumption.
 
The following Action commands are accepted by PFService, FLMService, FLTService, and VVOService using the form:
Action any.NameService <command> <options>
If there are exceptions to which services accept the commands, the services that do not accept the command are indicated by a superscript number following the high level message.
1. Not available for PFService
2. Not available for FLMService
3. Not available for FLTService
4. Not available for VVOService
For example, command <option>1,2 is a command that is not available for PFService and FLMService.
