What is a characteristic of global commands in the VPlexcli?

Global commands in the VPLEX CLI (Command Line Interface) are characterized by their accessibility from all contexts within the CLI. This means that these commands can be executed regardless of the current navigation level or context in the CLI structure.

Global Commands: Global commands are designed to provide convenience and efficiency by allowing administrators to execute certain operations without the need to navigate to a specific context within the CLI1.

CLI Context Tree: The VPLEX CLI is organized into a hierarchical context tree, where commands are typically executed within a specific context that corresponds to the area of the system being managed1.

Accessibility: Unlike other commands that must be executed from the appropriate location in the context tree, global commands can be accessed and run from any point within the CLI.This makes them readily available for common tasks that need to be performed frequently or quickly1.

Examples: Examples of global commands might include those used for system-wide status checks, performance monitoring, or initiating tasks that affect multiple components of the VPLEX system.

Efficiency: The ability to execute global commands from any context streamlines the management process, as it reduces the number of steps required to perform certain tasks and allows for quicker response to system events or requirements1.

By being accessible from all contexts, global commands in the VPLEX CLI provide a flexible and efficient way for administrators to manage and monitor the VPLEX system.
