allows multiple subcommands to be run while preserving environment settings and remaining in the asadmin utility
Synopsis
asadmin [asadmin-options] multimode [--help]
[--file filename]
[--printprompt={true|false}] [--encoding encode]
Description
The multimode subcommand processes asadmin subcommands sequentially
in a single session. The command-line interface prompts for a
subcommand, runs that subcommand, displays the results of that
subcommand, and then prompts for the next subcommand. All the asadmin
options set in multimode apply to subsequent commands until the
multimode session is exited. You exit multimode by typing exit,
quit, or Ctrl-D.
You can use the export subcommand to set your environment, or use the
unset subcommand to remove environment variables from the multimode
environment.
You can also provide subcommands by passing a previously prepared list
of subcommands from a file or standard input (pipe). When you use a
file, you can include comment lines in the file by entering the hash
symbol (#) as the first character of the line.
You can invoke multimode from within a multimode session. When you
exit the second multimode environment, you return to your original
multimode environment.
All the remote asadmin utility options can be supplied when invoking
the multimode subcommand. The settings will apply as defaults for all
subcommands that are run within the multimode session. For a list of the
asadmin utility options, see the
asadmin(1M) help page.
