Conventions
This manual uses the following notational conventions.
Command line examples that require system administrator (or root) rights to execute are preceded by the system administrator prompt, the hash sign (#). Entries that do not require system administrator rights are preceded by a dollar sign ($).
In some examples, the notation <nodename># indicates a root prompt on the specified node. For example, a command preceded by shasta1# would mean that the command was run as user root on the node named shasta1.
In manuals, helps, and messages of PRIMECLUSTER, a section number in a manual page is shown in parentheses after a command name or a file name. Example: cp(1)
For Linux, or Oracle Solaris 11.4 or later, replace the section numbers as follows:
- "(1M)" to "(8)"
- "(4)" to "(5)"
- "(5)" to "(7)"
- "(7)" to "(4)"
Keystrokes that represent nonprintable characters are displayed as key icons such as [Enter] or [F1]. For example, [Enter] means press the key labeled Enter; [Ctrl-b] means hold down the key labeled Ctrl or Control and then press the [B] key.
The following typefaces highlight specific elements in this manual.
Typeface | Usage |
|---|---|
Constant Width | Computer output and program listings; commands, file names, manual page names and other literal programming elements in the main body of text. |
Italic | Variables that you must replace with an actual value. |
Bold | Items in a command line that you must type exactly as shown. |
Typeface conventions are shown in the following examples.

$ cat <file>
The command line syntax observes the following conventions.
Symbol | Name | Meaning |
[ ] | Brackets | Enclose an optional item |
{ } | Braces | Enclose two or more items of which only one is used. The items are separated from each other by a vertical bar (|). |
| | Vertical bar | When enclosed in braces, it separates items of which only one is used. When not enclosed in braces, it is a literal element indicating that the output of one program is piped to the input of another. |
