Accessing the Operating System Shell

Introduction

This chapter described how to access the operating system shell so that you can issue commands.

Once you have accessed the operating system shell, the OS Shell function is automatically enabled in the Services Director VA GUI. This cannot be disabled once enabled.

You are now in the operating system shell.
