Managedomain command shows command prompt instead of menu options

Problem

-- In 7.3.1, you see this when running managedomain -

Running in command interpreter mode. Enter 'quit' or 'q' to exit.
Enter 'help' to view help topics. Enter 'help topic' to view help for a topic.
Press TAB to view and complete commands.

Resolution


* This is the new command interpreter mode which was added because the list of available options is constantly growing.  As the prompt above says, you can type 'help' to see a list of available commands and it will give you this output -

 

> help
