terminate
Syntax
terminate expression;
terminate { /* body */ }
Description
Generate an error message that is immediately displayed to the user, and exit the script.
Junos OS op scripts, event scripts, and commit scripts prepend
"error:" to the displayed message when generating text output. When
generating XML output, the scripts place the output inside a <message>
element, which is enclosed in an <xmn:error>
element.
If the terminate
statement is used
in a commit script, the script will generate two errors and terminate
the script and the commit process. If the terminate
statement is used in an event script, the script writes the message
to the output file, if one is configured, and terminates the script.
Attributes

XPath expression or string emitted as output. |
