Object types

Object types identify the type of entity on which to perform an action, such as a local_user, host, volume, or cluster. All actions require an object type. The one exception is the -help switch, which can be used without an object type. Get help explains how to use the -help switch.

The object instance on which you perform an action is designated by an identifier that is called an object qualifier, as explained in Object qualifiers.

Example 1

In the following example for creating a user, the object type is local_user:

pstcli -d 10.0.0.1 -u admin -p MyPassword456! local_user create –name user1 –password Password789! –role_id operator

Example 2

The following example for viewing all user accounts on the system shows that the object type is also local_user. An object identifier is not specified, so the show action displays a list of all user accounts:

pstcli -d 10.0.0.1 -u admin -p MyPassword456! local_user show
