Generation III Commands

Because of the underlying operating system changes from Generation II (FMOS releases prior to 8.26) to Generation III, several FMOS commands have changed.

Added

fmos factory-reset: This command can be used to erase all data and configuration from an machine and return it to a clean state
fmos health: This command replaces the fmos status command
cat /etc/fmos-release: This replaces fmos version
fmos config apply: This replaces fmos redeploy

Removed

fmos redeploy
fmos status: Users should use the fmos health command instead
fmos enable-updates
fmos install: Removed because the FMOS root file system is immutable
fmos version: To view the current FMOS version, use cat /etc/fmos-release
fmos resizedisk
fmos config -e
fmos config --edit

Replaced Commands

The current command-line editor, fmos config --edit has been removed and replaced with new commands for configuring FMOS from the command line. This replacement for command-line configuration mechanism borrows the concept of category-based editing from the FMOS Control Panel. The tool will display only the variables within the specified category.
