Using the command line -reason or -r option
Many commands offer the -reason option for administrators to use to indicate why the action was performed. The reason displays in the audit report.
The -reason string must be no more than 512 characters. Command lines that accept the -reason option display an error if the string is over 512 characters.
Note that the audit reason cannot begin with a dash character (-). The reason cannot contain a single quotation mark (\').
The following commands accept the -reason option (or -r option in the case of bpsetconfig or nbsetconfig):
bpdbjobs
bpplcatdrinfo
bpplclients
bppldelete
bpplinclude
bpplinfo
bpplsched
bpplschedrep
bppolicynew
bpsetconfig
Note:
The bpsetconfig and nbsetconfig commands accept the -r option instead of the -reason option.
bpstuadd
bpstudel
bpsturep
nbdecommission
nbdevconfig
nbcertcmd
nbsetconfig
vmpool
