HP P9000 Tiered Storage Manager Software 7.4.1-00 CLI Reference Guide (TB585-96029, April 2013)

In the CLI property files, any line that starts with a hash mark (#) is treated as a comment. Literal strings
or numbers do not need to be enclosed in quotation marks.
In Java property files, the backslash character (\) is a reserved escape character, and any character
following it is treated as a tab, line-feed, or other control character. Because absolute path names on
Windows platform generally contain backslashes, each path separator must be preceded by another
backslash. For example, the file path name c:\TieredStorageManager\docroot\foo.bar
must be entered as c:\\TieredStorageManager\\docroot\\foo.bar. For property
specifications, other characters do not generally need to be preceded by an escape character.
The following table lists the CLI properties.
