Dell PowerFlex v3.6.x CLI Reference Guide

query_properties

Retrieve any set of properties, on any set of objects of the specified type.

The properties that can be queried depend on the type of the object that is being queried. For example, SDS has different attributes than Volume.

A number of preset combinations are available for use with this command. A preset is a predefined set of properties, usually with some logical relationship, which specifies a group of commonly queried properties. The available presets are also dependent on the object type. All object types have at least one preset called all, which queries all the properties for that type.

Syntax

scli --query_properties --object_type <TYPE> (--object_id <ID> | --all_objects) (--properties <PROPS> | --preset <PRESET>) 
  [--group_by_property]
  [--display_property_options]
  [--flat_list]

Parameters

--object_type <TYPE>: Object type to query. One of:

SDT; NOTE:To view detailed presets and properties options for a type, enter scli --query_properties --object_type <TYPE>, where <TYPE> is one of the above options.
--object_id <ID>: Comma-separated list of object ID used for querying one or more specific objects. Omit the space after each comma.
--all_objects: Query all objects of the specified type.
--properties <PROPS>: Query a comma-separated list of properties. Omit the space after each comma. See the scli help output for a list of properties that can be queried per object type
--preset <PRESET>: Query a predefined set of properties. Omit the space after each comma. See the scli help output for the list of presets that can be used per object type.
--group_by_property: Group results by property type, rather than by object (the default).
--display_property_options: Display all available properties grouped by object type.
--flat_list: Print results as a flat list rather than by group (better for searching).

NOTE:Use scli --query_properties --object_type <TYPE> with one of the valid types above, to get detailed presets and properties options.
