Command Line Syntax 

The following conventions are used for commands which must be entered at
the DTC user interface. 

[optional]            Text in square brackets is optional and need not be
                      typed.  For example, in the c[onnect] command, you
                      can type connect or just c.

<variable>            Text in chevrons represents a variable which must
                      be entered, for example, the name of a system.  You
                      do not type the chevrons.

either|or             A pipe (|) is used to separate two items, one of
                      which must be entered.  For example, in <node name
                      | IP address> you must enter either a node name or
                      an IP address.
