[a|b|c] wildcard
Use the [a|b|c] wildcard to match one or more characters in the brackets.
ll clusters/cluster-1/directors/director-1-1-A/hardware/ports/A[0-1]
displays only ports with names starting with an A, and a second character of 0 or 1.
Names
Major components are named as follows:
Clusters
Metro node local configurations have a single cluster, with a cluster ID of cluster 1. Metro node metro
configurations have two clusters with cluster IDs of 1 and 2.
VPlexcli:/clusters/cluster-1/
Directors Directors are named director-n-n-n where the first value is the cluster ID (1 or 2), the second value is
always 1, and the third is A or B.
VPlexcli:/clusters/cluster-1/directors/director-1-1-A
For objects that can have user-defined names, those names must comply with the following rules:
● Can contain uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and underscores
● No spaces
● Cannot start with a number
● No more than 63 characters
Specifying addresses
Metro node uses IPv4 addressing. Many commands can be specified as IPv4 formats.
See the Dell EMC Administration Guide for metro node for usage rules and address formats.
