Object Commands

Overview

Most object types in ACM have one or more Commands that perform specific tasks on demand.  Commands are accessible using the following methods:

Configuration Object "Commands" Tab

This tab is located on the configuration screen when viewing or editing an object. If the tab is not present, then the object does not support commands.  Once the command has been executed, the user interface will indicate success or failure with a message dialog. Additional information may also have been output to the log view. See Log Viewer for more details.

1. Command Title
2. Execute button.
3. Command Description.
4. Command Parameters (May not be present).

Menu Tree Right-Click

Right-clicking on an object in the Configuration Tree will bring up a list of actions which includes commands that are available for the selected object. Commands present here do not use any parameters and execute immediately with feedback. See Command Feedback below.

Send Multiple Commands

This feature allows a common command shared by a common object type to be executed in mass against multiple objects. See Multiple Commands.
