ChassisOS Commands

The commands include:

• ping allows pinging of addresses in the Management network
• shell initiates the system shell
• install-failsafe securely installs a failsafe image between a local host and a remote host or between two remote hosts.
• power-cycle turns power to the physical blades on and off and effects a reset of SonicOSX and all instances
• reboot-system restarts all software (relatively graceful)
• restart sonicOS restarts only SonicOSX instances
• scp-core-dump in the event of a system crash, this allows a secure copy of a core dump to a Management network address
