Staging Commands

This section provides detailed command syntax for each Commerce Server Staging (CSS) command.

You run these commands from the command line in the following directory:

%COMMERCE_SERVER_ROOT%\Staging\Bin

By using the global flags, most CSS commands can be run from one server and specify a different server for the command to execute. For more information about an individual command, type CSS Help and the command.

Important Note:
CSS commands require the user who is executing the command to have either CSS administrator or operator rights to execute the command. For information about CSS user rights, see How Are Permissions Granted to CSS Authentication Accounts?
