In addition to using the command line interface by itself, you can
also combine the graphical user interface with commands entered
in the command line interface. This can be useful if you prefer to
perform certain operations in the command line interface and
others in the graphical user interface. For example, you can use the
si co command to check out a file, attaching -g or --gui to the
end of the command to view the Check Out dialog box. You can
then select check out options. This allows you to use the Check Out
dialog box without having to launch the graphical user interface.
For more information on using the graphical user interface with the
command line interface, see Vertical Sky Software Manager Reference
and man pages.
You can enter some VSky Software Manager commands without
entering any options, for example, si connect. Entering just the
command prompts you to add additional information that you
would normally add in the form of command options. This is
useful for commands, such as si connect, because the prompts
may contain default information, for example, your default
Vertical Sky Server and port number. This information, if it exists, is
in the IntegrityClientSite.rc file.
For project and sandbox commands, member refers to members of a
Vertical Sky Server project. If the member argument is omitted for
project or sandbox commands, the command is applied to all of the
members of the project or sandbox.
The member element must be the last entry of a command
statement. There are three ways to apply a command to multiple
members:
Enter Multiple Member Names
You can enter two or more member names, separated by
spaces, as the member component. For example, the command:
22 > > > > > > > > > > > > > >
