            "content": "The  multipathc tool provides an interactive shell for communicating with the multipathd dae‐\nmon.  The command multipathd -k invokes multipathc.\n\nAll commands documented in multipathd(8) are supported.  The available commands can be viewed\nby entering 'help'.  Use quit, exit, or CTRL-D to exit the shell.  Keywords can  be  abbrevi‐\nated  with  the first letters (for example, shu for shutdown), if the abbreviation is unique.\nSome commands support pretty-printing using printf-style  format  specifiers.  The  supported\nformat specifiers can be listed with the command show wildcards.  Depending on build options,\nthe interactive shell may provide command completion and history expansion features.\n\nThe  optional parameter timeout specifies the timeout to wait for a reply from multipathd, in\nmilliseconds. The default is 4000 ms.\n",
