Does the "r" option do what you want? Yes, it partially addresses the problem. To completely address it: 1. 'r' should be automatically invoked when launching the tool on an un-configured instance - it is not clear in the slightest that 'r' will walk you through the params. 2. It needs to show the help, default value & example value information when prompting for each param, since there is no way to get help until you have completed the sequence. 3. It should display the number associated with each param 4. It should display the 'param key' so the admin can refer to the Install Guide section if required. We need better labels against the following prompts: [o] Show optional parameters This actually shows *all* parameters - both optional & required [e] Exit This is really 'save & continue' onto next step - ie DM load [r] Set required parameters Redundant if we automatically invoke it upon startup.

Description of problem: When the 'ccm load' command is run with the --interactive parameter it prompts the user for any compulsory parameters. The interaction with the user, however, is far from optimal. Despite the fact that all parameters are compulsory, the user has to explicitly choose & set each param in turn. More common behaviour in these situations is for the program to take the user through each required parameter in sequence. Only once all have been set, is the opportunity given for users to have so called 'random access' to go back & set individual params. This removes the user redundantly having to type in '1<cr>', '2<cr>', just to choose to do something both they & the system know has to be done anyway.

Likewise, when choosing a parameter ocne in 'random access' mode, it should display the param info.
