For example, if I ask for the status of a remote locator by specifying its hostname and port, this message will suggest that we expect the locator to be running in the current directory on the GFSH client machine. It might also be helpful for this message to explain *why* we are unable to determine the status of this Locator. Maybe something like "At least one of the following options must be specified: `--name`, `--host`, or `--port`. Use 'help status server' to display detailed usage information." would be more helpful. > gfsh status locator/server - Give more descriptive output on empty parameter > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: GEODE-2203 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-2203 > Project: Geode > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: gfsh > Reporter: Alyssa Kim > Assignee: Emily Yeh > Priority: Minor > Labels: StatusLocatorCommand, StatusServerCommand, gfsh, status > > Currently, executing some status commands in gfsh without valid parameters > gives a vague explanation/output that might be misleading.
