host help
Returns help information about the host object and its operations. The syntax is:
host help [operation | -verbose]
Options

Description Used without an argument or option, the host help command returns brief information about each host operation. The optional operation
argument is the name of an operation (catalog, configure, ping, start, stop, show, and unconfigure) about which you want detailed
information. Alternatively, you can use the -verbose option for more detailed information about the host object itself.
Privileges Required No special privileges are needed to use the host help command.
