---------------------

.. index:: voss

The CLI (Command Line Interface) menu provides access to a number of commands
specifically related to |VOSS Automate|. 

In addition to the description of the commands available from the CLI
**voss - voss management tools** menu, further details are provided for a
selection of the commands. Note that some of the commands are used by developers only.


.. important::

   On a Modular Architecture deployment, ``voss`` system specific commands
   can only be run on application nodes and for Unified and Single Node architectures, *not* on database or web proxy type nodes.
  

The commands have been arranged into functional categories:

* Install commands: commands typically used during the install process.
* Database commands: commands that directly manage the database.
* Performance commands: commands to manage the system performance.
* System specific commands: general commands not specifically related to the 
  categories above.
