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 script called test-script:
switch# show file slot0:test-script
discover scsi-target remote
sleep 10
show scsi-target disk
switch# run-script slot0:test-script
When you execute the slot0:test-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.
Role-Based CLI
By default, two roles exist in all switches:
• Network operator—Has permission to view the configuration.
• Network administrator—Has permission to execute all commands and to set up to 64 permission
levels based on user roles and groups.
When you execute a command, perform command completion, or obtain context sensitive help, the
switch software allows the operation to progress if you have the correct permission as specified in the
description of the command.
