show directory(1m) show directory(1m)
NAME
show directory - Displays attribute information about the specified directory
SYNOPSIS
cdscp show directory directory-name [attribute-name] [with attribute-name = attribute-value]
ARGUMENTS
The full name of a specific directory. The last simple name can contain wildcard characters. The name of a particular attribute; see
Description for valid attribute names. The value of a particular attribute.
DESCRIPTION
The show directory command displays the names and values of the attributes specified in attribute-name. You can use a combination of
attributes in any sequence in a single command. Use a space to separate multiple attributes. You can use a with attribute-name =
attribute-value clause to limit output only to directories whose attributes have values equal to the specified values. A space must pre-
cede and follow the = (equals sign). If you do not supply any attributes, the command displays all attributes and their values. In addi-
tion to the following directory attributes, application-specific attributes can exist for a directory: Indicates the date and time of the
last successful skulk on the directory. All replicas of the directory are guaranteed to receive all updates whose timestamps are less than
the value of this attribute. Specifies the degree of consistency among replicas. This attribute's value is defined as one of the follow-
ing: CDS does not immediately propagate an update. The next skulk distributes all updates that occurred since the previous skulk. Skulks
occur at least once every 24 hours. CDS attempts to immediately propagate an update to all replicas. If the attempt fails, the next sched-
uled skulk makes the replicas consistent. Skulks occur at least once every 12 hours. CDS attempts to immediately propagate an update to
all replicas. If the attempt fails (for example, if one of the replicas is unavailable), a skulk is scheduled for within one hour. Skulks
usually occur at least once every 12 hours. Use this setting temporarily and briefly, because it uses extensive system resources.
By default, every directory inherits the convergence setting of its parent at creation time. The default setting on the root directory is
medium. Specifies the creation timestamp (CTS) of the CDS directory. Specifies the minimum of all the values of the CDS_ReplicaVersion
attribute on the directory replicas. A UUID that identifies a particular incarnation of the directory. Records the timestamp of the last
skulk performed on this directory. Records the timestamp of the most recent change to any attribute of a directory replica, or any change
to an entry in the replica. Specifies the unique identifier of the directory. Contains a pointer to this directory's parent in the names-
pace. Specifies the address, UUID, and name of every clearinghouse where a copy of this directory is located. This attribute also speci-
fies whether the replica in a particular clearinghouse is a master or read-only replica. Specifies whether a directory replica can be
accessed. Indicates whether a directory replica is a master or read-only replica. Specifies the version of a replica of the directory.
Specifies the UUID of a clearinghouse containing another replica of this directory. This attribute is written by the system and is read-
only to users. It will appear on older directories, but not on DCE 1.1 directories. Controls the upgrading of a directory from one ver-
sion of CDS to another. By modifying this attribute, you can initiate the upgrading of a directory to a new version of CDS. Specifies the
timestamp of the most recent update to an attribute of the directory. Specifies the RPC runtime software version that can be used to
import on the directory.
Privilege Required
You must have read permission to the directory. If you specify a wildcard directory name, you also need read permission to the directory's
parent directory.
NOTE
This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE.
