ilia updated CLI-309:
---------------------
Description:
When processing option value which starts with hyphen/dash like *-sec-attr
-password1* , exception [1] occurs. If the current token start with dash, it
will be processed as an option and therefore this will not be set as a value to
the previous option, which will cause [1]. The only way to set such value is to
use equals sign like *-sec-attr=-password1*. In this case the whole token is
processed as option=value pair and the correct value will be set.
