CLI usage conventions
Some Fabric OS show commands display certain switch- or fabric components in three-digit decimal
numbers, for example 003. When you use these numeric identifiers as inputs to other commands,
you must remove the leading zeros; otherwise the commands will either fail or generate incorrect
results. Adding zeros to any decimal number in a command input will cause that number to be
treated as an Octal number.
Automatic page breaks in CLI command output displays are being phased out. Use the more option
to display command output with page breaks: command | more. Do not use the more option in
conjunction with help pages. Executing help command | more will display a command “no manual
entry for command” message.
Document conventions
This section describes text formatting conventions and important notices formats.
Text formatting
The narrative-text formatting conventions that are used in this document are as follows:
bold text Identifies command names

lowercase.
