Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: "Application instance of the travel portal such as trvl-portal-us, trvl-portal-eu, and so on."

A block of code is set as follows:

emcli create_service -name='Check Out Service' -type='website' -availType='test' -availOp='or' -timezone_region='-7' -input_file='template:catalogue.xml' -beacons='TokyoBeacon:Y;NYCBeacon:N'

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

[default]
exten => s,1,Dial(Zap/1|30)
exten => s,2,Voicemail(u100)
exten => s,102,Voicemail(b100)
exten => i,1,Voicemail(s0)

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

emcli

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in the text like this: "The Availability Definition page allows the service administrator to toggle the service definition based on system target or service tests to one another".
