If used with the modifycollection or deletecollection subcommands, the collection parameter specifies a
name that uniquely identifies the collection.
If a collection with the name specified does not exist, the command will fail.
When used with the createcollection subcommand, if a name is specified for a collection that already exists, the
command will fail.
collections
Used with: list subcommand
Specify the collections parameter to display all supported collections.
combineNotification= {"yes"|"no}
Used with: configureASM subcommand
Specifies whether Smart Copy creation and Exchange verification emails are combined into a single email before being sent.
comment= comment_string$CLI$@
Used with: smart subcommand
Specify the comment= parameter to add a comment string to the command, such as a description of the operation.
Terminate the string with the sequence: $CLI$@. The limit is 75 characters.
component= component_name
Used with: smart, verify, mount, properties, unmount, restore, selectiveRestore, createcollection,
modifycollection subcommands
Specify the component= parameter with the originating component name, such as an Exchange mailbox database name. If
the component name string contains an embedded space, you must enclose the string in quotation marks (""). You can
obtain the component name from the ASM/ME GUI Applications node by browsing an individual components properties.
Alternatively, use the following command to display all component names:
> ASMCLI list components showobjectid
The component= parameter and the objectID= parameter are mutually exclusive and the command parser processes
the first valid parameter, ignoring any subsequent parameters.
The component= parameter is an alternative to using the document= parameter, the volume= parameter or the
collection= parameter. If you redundantly specify either a document path or a volume letter, the command parser is the
redundant parameter.
When used with the createcollection or modifycollection subcommands, the component parameter identifies a
semicolondelimited list of supported component specified by name. If this parameter is used, the volume= parameter
cannot be used.
components
Used with: list subcommand
Specify the components parameter to display all supported components such as Exchange mailbox databases.
deletesnap
Used with: unmount subcommand
Specify the deletesnap parameter to delete the Smart Copy Set from which the target volume was unmounted. If the
Smart Copy Set contains multiple volumes this parameter has the following effect:
It unmounts all volumes included in the Smart Copy that are currently mounted.
It deletes all the volumes included in the Smart Copy regardless of their current mount status.
disable
Used with: alert subcommand
