show child(8cds)

Displays attribute information about the specified child pointer

Synopsis

cdscp show child child-name [attribute-name]
[with attribute-name = attribute-value]

Arguments

child-name
The full name of a specific child pointer. The last simple name can contain wildcard characters.

attribute-name
The name of an attribute; see Description for valid attribute names.

attribute-value
The value of a particular attribute.

Description
The show child command displays the names and values of the attributes specified in attribute-name. You can use a combination of attributes 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 child pointers whose attributes have values equal to the specified values. A space must precede and follow the = (equals sign).

If you do not supply any attributes, the command displays all attributes and their values. The following is a description of child pointer attributes:

CDS_CTS
Specifies the creation timestamp (CTS) of the specified child pointer.

CDS_ObjectUUID
Specifies the unique identifier of the directory to which the child pointer refers.

CDS_Replicas
Specifies the address, UUID, and name of a set of clearinghouses where a copy of the child directory referenced by the child pointer is located. This attribute also specifies whether the directory in a particular clearinghouse is a master or read-only replica.

CDS_UTS
Specifies the timestamp of the most recent update to an attribute of the child pointer.

Privileges Required
You must have r (read) permission to the child pointer. If you specify a wildcard child name, you also need r (read) permission to the parent directory.

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

Examples
The following command displays all the attributes and values of the child directory to which the child pointer /.:/admin refers:

cdscp> show child /.:/admin
