Using Menus to Perform Tasks 2-9
If you enter a command incorrectly, you receive a prompt telling you that
what you entered was not valid or was ambiguous. You must re-enter the
command from the point at which it became incorrect.
Entering Values When you reach the level at which you perform a specific task, you are
prompted for a value. The prompt usually shows all valid values (if
applicable) and sometimes a suggested default value. The default might be
the system default or the current user-defined value of that parameter.
The valid values are displayed in parentheses. The default value is in
brackets. In this example, (
disabled, enabled) are the valid values.
[
Enabled], shown in brackets, is the default:
Enter a new value (disabled,enabled) [enabled]:
Entering values in
command strings
A command string can also contain the value of a command parameter.
If you enter a value at the end of a command string, the task is completed,
and you are returned to the previous menu. For example, to disable a
baseline from the top-level menu, enter:
Select a menu option: system baseline requestedState
disabled
Getting Out To return to the menu one step higher in the hierarchy or to cancel an
operation that you are currently performing, enter
q, followed by [Return].
To quickly move to the top-level menu without backtracking through
menus, press [Esc] (the Escape key). You immediately return to the top-level
menu.
To completely leave the Administration Console, see the section “Exiting the
Administration Console” on page 2-17.
