SYNOPSISisnsadm options
isnsadm subcommand [subcommand_options] [operand]
DESCRIPTION
The isnsadm command is the command-line interface to the Internet Stor‐
age Name Service (iSNS) server. isnsadm comprises a set of subcommands,
described in their own section, each of which accomplishes one of the
iSNS server management functions.
For any operations that will change the iSNS configurations the
solaris.isnsmgr.write authorization is required. Refer to isns(1M). For
read operations, the command does not require special authorizations.
isnsadm has a set of general options and a set of subcommand-specific
options. The first category is described under OPTIONS; the second cat‐
egory is described in the context of each subcommand description.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-?, --help
Displays context help. Stops interpretation of any subsequent argu‐
ments.
-V, --version
Displays version information. Stops interpretation of any subse‐
quent arguments.

When a subcommand is invoked with multiple operands and there are fail‐
ures on one or more, but not all, operands, isnsadm displays a generic
message indicating partial failure, with list of failed operands. An
error on a specific operand can be found by issuing the same subcommand
on the failing operand.
