HELP

   qs help|h [command-name|partial-command-name] [--min]

OUTPUT MODES

   --min           : Minimal mode prints command and required arguments plus a brief command 
                      description.
   --verbose       : Verbose mode prints command and all arguments, a brief command description 
                      plus detailed descriptions of each keyword argument.
   --xml           : XML output mode returns verbose XML output for integration with scripts and 
                      other systems.
   --min --nonames : Blocks automatic conversion of UUIDs to names (see disk-list, tp-list).

SERVER AUTHENTICATION

   --server=ipaddress[,username,password] : Comma separated values, no spaces.
   QuantaStor will attempt to authenticate with the default 'admin','password' if username and 
   password are not supplied. You may also provide authentication credentials by setting and 
   exporting the QS_SERVER environment variable (export QS_SERVER=ipaddress[,username[,password]]) 
   or by placing the credentials in the file '~/.qs.cnf' (e.g., 192.168.0.10,admin,password).

This means that you can run commands synchronously and/or asynchronously to run multiple operations concurrently. By default the CLI waits for the task to complete so it blocks by default. You can have the CLI not wait by specifying the 'async' flag to any operation. In such cases the CLI will return immediately.
