Maintenance Mode Commands 

Table 5-1 lists the NMMGR maintenance mode commands and the actions they
perform.  Each of these commands is described in detail later in this
chapter.

NOTE Subsystem break ([CTRL]Y) may be used to interrupt the operation of the COPYCONF, DELETENODE, HELP, LISTDIR, MAKESTREAM and MERGEDIR commands. The EXPANDDIR command cannot be interrupted. The VERSIONCONF command must be used before the PATHCONF command, which must be used before the READCONF, READALLCONF, WRITECONF, and UPDATECONF commands to define the current path.
