dminfo(1M) System Administration Commands dminfo(1M)
NAME
dminfo - report information about a device entry in a device maps file
SYNOPSIS
dminfo [-v] [-a] [-f pathname]
dminfo [-v] [-a] [-f pathname] -n dev -name...
dminfo [-v] [-a] [-f pathname] -d dev -path...
dminfo [-v] [-a] [-f pathname] -t dev -type...
dminfo [-v] [-f pathname] -u dm -entry
DESCRIPTION
dminfo reports and updates information about the device_maps(4) file.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported
-a Succeed if any of the requested entries are found. If used with -v, all entries that match the requested case(s)
are printed.
-d dev-path Search by dev-path. Search device_maps(4) for a device special pathname in the device_list field matching the
dev-path argument. This option cannot be used with -n, -t or -u.
-f pathname Use a device_maps file with pathname instead of /etc/security/device_maps.
-n dev-name Search by dev-name. Search device_maps(4) for a device_name field matching dev-name. This option cannot be used
with -d, -t or -u.
-t dev-type Search by dev-type. Search device_maps(4) for a device_type field matching the given dev-type. This option cannot
be used with -d, -n or -u.
-u dm-entry Update the device_maps(4) file. This option is provided to add entries to the device_maps(4) file. The dm-entry
must be a complete device_maps(4) file entry. The dm-entry has fields, as in the device_maps file. It uses the
colon (:) as a field separator, and white space as the device_list subfield separators. The dm-entry is not made if
any fields are missing, or if the dm-entry would be a duplicate. The default device maps file can be updated only
by the super user.
-v Verbose. Print the requested entry or entries, one line per entry, on the standard output. If no entries are speci-
fied, all are printed.
EXIT STATUS
0 Successful completion.
1 Request failed.
2 Incorrect syntax.
FILES
/etc/security/device_maps
