If opposing action-options are used on the same command line, the last specified action-option applies.
An action-option that is redundant or has no meaning in the context of the specified action is ignored.
Attempted use of an inappropriate action-option which would lead to unexpected behavior returns a usage error.
Global options define a behavior applicable to all actions; for example, the -quiet option suppresses non-essential messages for all actions. You may have one or more global options per command.
To access the list of available global options for an action, enter amplxe-cl -help <action>, where <action> is one of the available actions. To see all available actions, enter amplxe-cl -help.
