Shell Command Reference

XOROS is fully compliant with POSIX shell. This means that you can use any POSIX shell command in XOROS. However, XOROS also provides a set of commands that are specific to the XOROS framework. These commands are described in this section.

Obtaining Shell#

To start using the XOROS command-line interface, you first need to obtain shell access. This can typically be done by accessing the serial port interface or through remote access methods, depending on the device’s configuration.

General Commands#

help#

Displays a comprehensive list of available commands, both from the POSIX standard and those specific to XOROS.

Usage: Simply type help and press enter. The system will present a list of commands with brief descriptions.

version#

Provides information about the current version of the XOROS framework you’re operating on.

Usage: Enter version into the shell and press enter. The system will display the XOROS version number and any other relevant version details.

System Orchestration Commands#

sym#

Initiates the Symbiote Text User Interface (TUI) application within the current shell. This application aids in orchestrating various system components and processes.

Usage: Type sym and press enter. The Symbiote TUI will launch, providing a user-friendly interface to manage and monitor system orchestration tasks.

net#

Activates the Network Configuration Text User Interface (TUI) application in the current shell. This application is essential for setting up, monitoring, and troubleshooting network configurations within XOROS.

Usage: Input net into the shell and hit enter. The Network Configuration TUI will appear, offering a range of tools and options to manage your device’s network settings.

sys#

Launches the System Configuration Text User Interface (TUI) application in the current shell. This application is essential for setting up, monitoring, and troubleshooting system configurations within XOROS.

Usage: Type sys and press enter. The System Configuration TUI will appear, offering a range of tools and options to manage your device’s system settings.
