Entity identifiers

Many jagtool commands take one or more entity identifiers as arguments. An entity identifier is a string of the form EntityType:EntityName that uniquely identifies an entity in the repository.

Table 12-3 provides examples of entity identifiers for each entity type.

Not all jagtool commands support every type of entity in the repository. For example, the refresh command is not supported for the Listener entity type.

When a command specifies an invalid entity type, an appropriate error message is displayed.
