I'm writing an SOP document for restarting Windows servers hosting Filemaker Server 12. I have the correct syntax from the Filemaker Server 12 Help PDF.

fmsadmin disconnect client -m message, --message message

However, when I try to use it, it doesn't work. I need an example as the syntax for the message part is unclear. Here's what I tried:

fmsadmin disconnect client -m --Please log out

Could someone give me an example of what the message part should look like?

Bill

you have to use either -m or --message (long form or short form)

So the command would be:

fmsadmin disconnect client -m "please log out"

or

fmsadmin disconnect client --message "Please log out"

(can't have spaces in a CLI command, otherwise anything after the space gets interpreted as a new command or a new parameter)
