Disabling and enabling command logging

You can disable or enable logging of controller commands by setting the
environment variable TW_CLI_LOG to ON or OFF. The method for setting
the environment variable depends on the operating system.

For Linux

The command you use to set the environment variable depends on the type of
shell.

Important:

Use the same shell you are using to run CLI, to set the

environment variable. If you set it in a different shell window and then
terminate that shell, the change will revert.

If Bash, ksh, or sh, use

export TW_CLI_LOG=OFF

or

export TW_CLI_LOG=ON

If csh (C-shell), use

setenv TW_CLI_LOG OFF

or

setenv TW_CLI_LOG ON

Note:

Setting the environment variable as described above is not persistent

across reboot, because the the shell terminates when you power down, and
defaults are reset on power on. To set an environment variable that will
persist, set a global variable in a login config file (such as .rc or .cshrc) that
will set the variable to the desired state when the system powers on. For
details, see the manpage for the shell you are using.

For Windows
