It will wbe replaced accordingly

The value can also refer to another setiable name. In this case the current value will be copied in the named setiable. As we use the $ sign it is important to distinguish shell set variables from cms setiables while using proper quoting.

Examples include:

cms set a=$b cms set ‘a=$b’ cms set a=val.b

The previous command copy the value from b to a. The val command was added to avoid quoting.

A special variable is the variable verbose. It results in additional debug output. The following values apply

0 - no additional output

10 - most visible.

Prints all arguments from commands
