Interactive Mode

It is also possible to use the command-line mode in an interactive way. Taking advantage of Jython's interactive mode, you can test commands one at a time. Start by running the jaws.py script itself:

~$ /usr/local/Automic_Automation_Intelligence/batch/run.pl

or

C:\Automic_Automation_Intelligence\batch> run.bat -i lib/jaws.py

Note:

The run.bat script automatically inserts the -i jaws.py parameters when it is run without arguments. If you are using run.pl , you need to supply these details.

Either way, you get a brief welcome message, followed by a prompt at which you can type a command and get an immediate result. Lines beginning with ">>>" or "..." are prompts, all other lines are status and results:

To exit, type "exit()" or ^Z, return (windows) or ^D (otherwise).
