SYNOPSIS

       cdscp create replica directory-name clearinghouse clearinghouse-name

ARGUMENTS

       The full name of the directory.	The full name of the clearinghouse in which you want to create the replica.

DESCRIPTION

       The create replica command creates a replica of an existing directory in the specified clearinghouse.

   Privilege Required
       You  must have administer permission to the directory you intend to replicate and write permission to the clearinghouse that stores the new
       replica.  The server principal needs read, write, and administer permission to the directory you intend to replicate.

NOTES

       diate skulk of the parent directory after issuing this command.

       This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE.

EXAMPLE

       inghouse /.:/Paris1_CH
