Shell Commands

Shell commands are quite similar to the bash commands in Unix. Almost all tasks performed on the Web UI can be performed using the Shell commands. The shell provides a rich set of navigation, scripting, and help commands.

Help Command
To get comprehensive help using a command, use the --help option with the command.
Navigation Commands
Navigating the object hierarchy on the TIBCO Enterprise Administrator server is quite similar to navigating a file system. Commands offered are like the basic navigation commands available in Unix. Each object has a path corresponding to it.
Scripting Commands
You can use advanced scripting constructs to combine multiple commands and write complex scripts.
Advanced Scripting Commands
In addition to the basic scripting commands, the Shell command language supports some advanced constructs that help in scripting. Use these constructs to write complex scripts.
Direct Commands
The TIBCO Enterprise Administrator shell supports executing commands directly from the input.
The Script File Command
A script file is equivalent to a batch file where you can list all the commands you want to execute sequentially.
