● The cd command followed by a <Tab> displays the same information as ls at the context level.
For example, type cd and press <Tab> in the data-migrations context to display available options:
VPlexcli:/data-migrations> cd <Tab>
device-migrations/ extent-migrations/
● The tree command displays the immediate sub-contexts in the tree using the current context as the root:
VPlexcli:/ cd /clusters/cluster-1/devices/Symm_rC_3
VPlexcli:/clusters/cluster-1/devices/Symm_rC_3> tree
/clusters/cluster-1/devices/Symm_rC_3:
components
Symm_rC_3_extent_0
Symm_rC_3_extent_1
vsphere-ds-1416311053-1_vol
● The tree -e command displays immediate sub-contexts in the tree and any sub-contexts under them:
VPlexcli:/clusters/cluster-1/devices/Symm_rC_3> tree -e
/clusters/cluster-1/devices/Symm_rC_3:
components
Symm_rC_3_extent_0
components
Symm0487_44C
components
Symm_rC_3_extent_1
components
Symm0487_44B
components
NOTE:
For contexts where the next level down the tree is a list of objects, the tree command displays the list. This output
can be very long. For example:
VPlexcli:/clusters/cluster-1> tree
/clusters/cluster-1:
cluster-connectivity
cluster-links
to-cluster-2
proxy-servers
static-routes
devices
base0
components
extent_CX4_lun0_1
