Showing Outlet Information
The show command displays the name, power state (on or off), and associated
sensors for one outlet or for all outlets.
Syntax
The following is the syntax for the show command:
clp:/−> show /system1/outlet<outlet number>
where <outlet number> is the number of the outlet. To display information for all
outlets, type the wild card asterisk (*) instead of a number.
Attributes
You can use the name and powerState attributes to filter the output of the show
command. The name attribute displays only the name of the outlet, and the
powerState attribute displays only the power state (on or off).
The following shows the syntax for both attributes:
clp:/−> show –d properties=name /system1/outlet<outlet number>
clp:/−> show –d properties=powerState
/system1/outlet<outlet number>
where <outlet number> is the number of the outlet. In both cases, the outlet number
can also be a wild card asterisk (*).
Examples
Figure 95 shows an example of the output when a show command is entered without
attributes.
