Subject: Re: Submitting Suggestions to Netapp/CLI command builder

For the record, this sounds like a *great* and handy idea.  Linking
FilerView and the powerful ONTAP CLI = win/win!

As far as how to get it done, contacting either your TGA (if you have
one), or your sales rep or other "account rep" type person and asking
them about submitting an RFE would be a good way to start, it seems.

I know I will ;)
