From the user guide (section 16.19.2) I can see that there are many options to the commit command:  
commit (check | and-quit | confirmed []…

but from confd cli I don’t see such options?  
How I can see it?  
I want to check the commit confirmed option using the CLI.

thanks,

Have you enabled the candidate datastore in confd.conf?

For example:

```
$ pwd
/Users/tailf/confd-6.4.2/examples.confd/user_guide_examples/simple_cdb
$ diff -u confd.conf.bak confd.conf

Hi,

I changed the confd.conf file according to your suggestion but still when I entering the confd\_cli in config exclusive mode I got:  
localhost(config)# commit ?  
Possible completions:  
and-quit Exit configuration mode  
check Validate configuration  
comment Add a commit comment  
label Add a commit label  
no-confirm No confirm  
save-running Save running to file before performing the commit  
  
localhost(config)# commit

No option for commit confirmed

Hi,

Check that you configured ConfD using your modified confd.conf:

```
# show netconf-state | nomore | begin candidate | until confirmed-commit:1.1
netconf-state capabilities capability urn:ietf:params:netconf:capability:candidate:1.0
netconf-state capabilities capability urn:ietf:params:netconf:capability:confirmed-commit:1.0
netconf-state capabilities capability urn:ietf:params:netconf:capability:confirmed-commit:1.1
```

Looks that I confiogured as expected but no option for commit confirmed

I suggest you try ConfD Basic 6.4 examples.confd/user\_guide\_examples/simple\_cdb with the modified confd.conf and let me know the result you get.
