Entering Command Options

Entering Command Options

pmcmd
 provides multiple ways to enter some of the command options and arguments. For example, to enter a password, use the following syntax:

      
<
<-password|-p> password
|
<-passwordvar|-pv> passwordEnvVar
>
To enter a password, precede the password with the -password or -p option:
-password ThePassword
or
-p ThePassword
If you use a password environment variable, precede the variable name with the -pv or ‑passwordvar option:
-passwordvar PASSWORD
or
-pv PASSWORD
If a command option contains spaces, use single or double quotation marks to enclose the option. For example, use single quotes in the following syntax to enclose the folder name:
abortworkflow -sv MyIntService -d MyDomain -u seller3 -p jackson ‑f 'quarterly sales' -wait wf_MyWorkflow
To denote an empty string, use two single quotes ('') or two double quotes ("").

Where is the complete documentation for the pmcmd which lists all the possible parameters and syntax?  I want to know if I can specify the node that the workflow will run on.

I did some digging and found it here..

Thanks.
