Setting the Delay Time
The sleep command delays an action by a specified number of seconds.
The syntax for this command is sleep seconds.
switch# sleep 30
You will see the switch prompt return after 30 seconds. This command is useful within scripts. For
example, if you create a command script called test-script.
switch# show file bootflash:test-script
discover scsi-target remote
sleep 10
show scsi-target disk
switch# run-script bootflash:test-script
When you execute the test-script command script, the switch software executes the discover scsi-target
remote command, and then waits for 10 seconds before executing the show scsi-target disk command.
