issue with Symbolic link
Hi All,
I have to set a soft link to a directory, e.g.
Quote:
ln -s /cms/cmsUAT/server/cmu/Contribution /cms/cmsuat/server/cmu/contribution
it’s done, however I want it make it permanent and in case if any program is pointing to /cms/cmsuat/server/cmu/contribution it should go to /cms/cmsUAT/server/cmu/Contribution. Need your help!
Thanks in advance!

list_link
list link(1m) list link(1m)
NAME
list link - Displays a list of all the soft links whose names match the link name that you specify
SYNOPSIS
cdscp list link link-name [with attribute-name = attribute-value]
ARGUMENTS
The full name of a specific soft link. The last simple name can contain wildcard characters. The name of a particular attribute. The
value of a particular attribute.
DESCRIPTION
The list link command displays a list of all the soft links whose names match the link name that you specify. The last simple name can
contain wildcard characters. You can use a with attribute-name = attribute-value clause to limit output only to soft links whose
attributes have values equal to the specified values. A space must precede and follow the = (equals sign). This command does not list the
name of the directory, object entry, or other soft link to which the soft link points.
Privilege Required
You must have read permission to the directory that stores the soft link. If you use a with attribute-name = attribute-value clause in
the command, you also need read or test permission to the selected soft links.
NOTE
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 displays a list of all the soft links whose names begin with the letter l in the directory /.:/admin. cdscp> list
link /.:/admin/l*
LIST
SOFTLINK /.../abc.com/admin
