Command Line Troubleshooting

This guide describes and illustrates scripts and commands that can be used for information gathering and troubleshooting. Generally if a script and/or command appears to execute and does not return information or specifically states failure status, one can assume that there is a system fault with related hardware, and that further troubleshooting is indicated.

notice CAUTION SHOULD BE TAKEN WHEN WORKING WITH COMMAND LINE. MISUNDERSTANDING OR INEXPERIENCE WITH COMMANDS WILL LEAD TO SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONING AND CONFIGURATION ISSUES.
