create child(1m)														  create child(1m)

NAME

       create child - Creates a child pointer at the master replica of the parent directory

SYNOPSIS

       cdscp create child child-name clearinghouse clearinghouse-name

ARGUMENTS

       The full name of the child pointer.  The full name of a clearinghouse that contains a replica of the child directory.

DESCRIPTION

       The create child command creates a child pointer at the master replica of the parent directory.	When CDS looks up a name in the namespace,
       it uses child pointers to locate directory replicas.  Use the set cdscp preferred clearinghouse command	before	issuing  this  command	to
       ensure that the request is directed to the master replica.

   Privilege Required
       You must have insert permission to the parent directory.

NOTES

       Use  the  create  child	command  only  to  re-create a child pointer that is accidentally deleted. This command is designed only for trou-
       bleshooting.

       This command will fail if the associated directory does not exist.  If the associated directory exists, this command will  return  success-
       fully.

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

EXAMPLE

       The  following  command	creates the child pointer in the parent directory /.:/subsys.  It uses the replica located at the /.:/subsys/NY_CH
       clearinghouse to fill in its replica set.

       cdscp> create child /.:/subsys clearinghouse /.:/subsys/NY_CH
