=head1 NAME
B<lsdef> - Use this command to list xCAT data object definitions.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<lsdef> [B<-h>|B<--help>] [B<-t> I<object-types>]
B<lsdef> [B<-V>|B<--verbose>] [B<-l>|B<--long>] [B<-s>|B<--short>] [B<-a>|B<--all>] [B<-S>]
[B<-t> I<object-types>] [B<-o> I<object-names>] [B<-z>|B<--stanza>] [B<-i> I<attr-list>]
[B<-c>|B<--compress>] [[B<-w> I<attr>==I<val>] [B<-w> I<attr>=~I<val>] ...] [I<noderange>]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This command is used to display xCAT object definitions which are stored
in the xCAT database.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 10
=item B<-a|--all>
Display all definitions.
=item B<-c|--compress>
Display information in compressed mode, each output line has format "<object name>: <data>".
The output can be passed to command xcoll or xdshbak for formatted output.
The -c flag must be used with -i flag.
=item B<-h|--help>
Display usage message.
=item B<-i> I<attr-list>
Comma separated list of attribute names to display.
=item B<-l|--long>
List the complete object definition.
=item B<-s|--short>
Only list the object names.
=item B<-S>
List all the hidden nodes (FSP/BPA nodes) with other ones.
=item I<noderange>
A set of comma delimited node names and/or group names.
See the "noderange" man page for details on supported formats.
=item B<-o> I<object-names>
A set of comma delimited object names.
=item B<-t> I<object-types>
A set of comma delimited object types. Use the help option to get a list of valid objects.
=item B<-V|--verbose>
Verbose mode.
=item B<-w> I<attr==val> B<-w> I<attr=~val> ...
Use one or multiple -w flags to specify the selection string that can be used to select objects. The operators ==, !=, =~ and !~ are available. Use the help option to get a list of valid attributes for each object type.
Operator descriptions:
== Select nodes where the attribute value is exactly this value.
!= Select nodes where the attribute value is not this specific value.
=~ Select nodes where the attribute value matches this regular expression.
!~ Select nodes where the attribute value does not match this regular expression.
Note: if the "val" fields includes spaces or any other characters that will be parsed by shell, the "attr<operator>val" needs to be quoted. If the operator is "!~", the "attr<operator>val" needs to be quoted using single quote.
=item B<-z|--stanza>
Display output in stanza format. See the xcatstanzafile man page for details on using xCAT stanza files.

=head1 RETURN VALUE
0 The command completed successfully.
1 An error has occurred.
=head1 EXAMPLES
=over 4
=item 1.
To display a description of all the valid attributes that could be used
when defining an xCAT node.
lsdef -t node -h
=item 2.
To get a list of all the objects that have been defined.
lsdef
OR
lsdef -a
=item 3.
To get all the attributes of the node1
lsdef node1
OR
lsdef -t node node1
OR
lsdef -t node -o node1
=item 4.
To get the object name of node1 instead of all the attributes
lsdef -s node1
=item 5.
To get a list of all the network definitions.
lsdef -t network
=item 6.
To get a complete listing of all network definitions.
lsdef -l -t network
=item 7.
To list the whole xCAT database and write it to a stanza file. (backup database)
lsdef -a -l -z > mydbstanzafile
=item 8.
To list the MAC and install adapter name for each node.
lsdef -t node -i mac,installnic
=item 9.
To list an osimage definition named "aix53J".
lsdef -t osimage -l -o aix53J
=item 10.
To list all node definitions that have a status value of "booting".
lsdef -t node -w status==booting
=item 11.
To list all the attributes of the group "service".
lsdef -l -t group -o service
=item 12.
To list all the attributes of the nodes that are members of the group "service".
lsdef -t node -l service
=item 13.
To get a listing of object definitions that includes information about
what xCAT database tables are used to store the data.
lsdef -V -l -t node -o node01
=item 14.
To list the hidden nodes that can't be seen with other flags.
The hidden nodes are FSP/BPAs.
lsdef -S
=item 15.
To list the nodes status and use xcoll to format the output.
lsdef -t node -i status -c | xcoll
