File Management Tasks in the MD-CLI

The following sections are basic system tasks that can be performed in the MD-CLI.

For more information about the supported MD-CLI commands, see the 7450 ESS, 7750 SR, 7950 XRS, and VSR MD-CLI Command Reference Guide.

When a file system operation is performed that can potentially remove or overwrite a file system entry, a prompt appears to confirm the action. The force keyword performs the operation without displaying the confirmation prompt.

All the commands can operate on the local file system. Table 1 indicates which commands also support remote file operations.
