How do I access command history at the CLI?
When typing commands at the CLI, it is sometimes desirable to access previously
typed commands. StorEdge has several command history options available. Note
that the CLI does not provide Unicode support. The features described here are
intended for use with ASCII characters only.
1. To access the StorEdge CLI, connect to the StorEdge via Telnet or serial console.
2. Type “admin” at the [menu] prompt and enter the administrator password.
The history list contains a maximum of 32 entries and will be saved to
/cvol/log/history whenever the exit or quit commands are issued. The contents of
/cvol/log/history will be read on boot. The shell built-in history command can be
used to display a numbered list of previously executed commands. Previous
commands can be executed by entering “!nn” at the CLI, where nn is the entry
number. The history command is not displayed in the help list.
