CLI flags

The following flags are common to all command-line interface (CLI) commands.

-? or -h

Print help text. For example, issuing svcinfo lscluster -h provides a list of the actions available with the svcinfo lscluster command.

-nomsg

When used, this flag prevents the display of the successfully created output. For example, if you issue the following command:

svctask mkmdiskgrp -ext 16

it displays:

MDisk Group, id [6], successfully created

However, if the -nomsg parameter is added, for example:

svctask mkmdiskgrp -ext 16 -nomsg

the following information is displayed:

6

This parameter can be entered for any command, but is only acted upon by those commands that generate the successfully created outputs. All other commands ignore this parameter.
