SLC™ 8000 Advanced Console Manager User Guide 200
to the Power group, the user running the runcli command must belong to the Power or Admin
group). For Batch Scripts, if this minimum group requirement is met, the SLC user will
temporarily be granted all of the individual rights assigned to the script while the Batch Script is
running.
Note: Expect Custom Scripts have a debug enable option that supports printing
Expect debug information to aid in creating an Expect script. The debug option is not
supported for Tcl and Python scripts.
Script Commands
Go to Script Commands to view CLI commands which correspond to the web page entries
described above.
Batch Script Syntax
The syntax for Batch Scripts is exactly the same as the commands that can be typed at the CLI,
with the additions described in this section.
The sleep command suspends execution of the script (puts it to 'sleep') for the specified number
of seconds. Syntax:
sleep <value>
The while command allows a loop containing CLI commands to be executed. Syntax:
while {<Boolean expression>} {
CLI command 1
CLI command 2
...
CLI command n
}
Note: The closing left brace '}' must be on a line without any other characters. To
support a while command, the set command, variables, and secondary commands are
also supported.
Interface Script Syntax
This section describes the abbreviated scripting syntax for Interface Scripts. This limited syntax
was created to prevent the creation of scripts containing potentially harmful commands. Script
commands are divided into three groups: Primary, Secondary and Control Flow. Primary
commands provide the basic functionality of a script and are generally the first element on a line of
a script, as in:
send_user "Password:"
Secondary commands provide support for the primary commands and are generally not useful by
themselves. For example, the expr command can be used to generate a value for a set
command.
set <my_var> [expr 1 + 1]
Control Flow commands allow conditional execution of other commands based on the results
of the evaluation of a Boolean expression.
