1 – directory
Re-creates a duplicate directory in the source subtree as a new
directory in the target subtree.
SYNOPSIS
RECREATE DIRECTORY directory-name [AS] DIRECTORY newdirectory-name
Arguments
directory-name
The full name of the directory.
newdirectory-name
The new name of the copy of the directory.
Description
This command re-creates a duplicate directory in the source subtree
as a new directory in the target subtree. This is useful for
resolving duplicate name conflicts that result from a merge of
two subtrees. The command duplicates the directory only, not its
contents. Its writable attribute values (DNS$ACS, DNS$Convergence,
and DNS$UpgradeTo) are retained.
NOTE
Although all original ACEs are retained, the new directory also
inherits all ACEs that may be propagated from the new parent
directory in the target subtree. The principal executing the
recreate directory command is granted full access to the new
directory.
The following attribute values are updated and do not match
the values of the original directory: DNS$AllUpTo, DNS$CTS,
DNS$DirectoryVersion, DNS$InCHName, DNS$ParentPointers,
DNS$Replicas, and DNS$UTS. This command does not delete or modify
the source directory.
ACCESS RIGHTS
You must have read, write, and delete access to the directory in
which you intend to re-create the source directory.
1.1 – example
The following command re-creates the existing directory .sales.quar1 as a new directory named .mkt.quar1. dns> recreate directory .sales.quar1 as directory .mkt.quar1
2 – link
Re-creates a duplicate soft link in the source subtree as a new soft
link in the target subtree.
SYNOPSIS
RECREATE LINK link-name [AS] LINK newlink-name
Arguments
link-name
The full name of the soft link.
newlink-name
The new name of the copy of the soft link. If you specify the name
of an existing directory in the target subtree, the soft link is
recreated in that directory with its original link name.
Description
This command creates a copy of a soft link with a new full name.
This is useful for resolving duplicate name conflicts that result
from a merge of two subtrees. The soft link's writable attribute
values are retained, but DNS$CTS and DNS$UTS attribute values are
not preserved.
NOTE
Although all origianl ACEs are retained, the new soft link also
inherits all ACEs that may be propagated from the new parent
directory in the target subtree. The principal executing the
recreate link command is granted full access to the new soft
link.
Asterisk wildcards are acceptable in both arguments. This command
does not modify or delete the source soft link.
ACCESS RIGHTS
You must have read, write, and delete access to the directory in
which you intend to re-create the soft link.
2.1 – example
The following command re-creates all soft links that exist in the .sales directory as new soft links in the .mkt directory. dns> recreate link .sales.* as link .mkt.*
3 – object
Re-creates a duplicate object entry in the source subtree as a new
object entry in the target subtree. Its writable attribute values
are retained, but DNS$CTS and DNS$UTS attribute values are not
preserved. Asterisk wildcards are acceptable in both arguments.
This command does not modify or delete the source object entry.
SYNOPSIS
RECREATE OBJECT object-name [AS] OBJECT newobject-name
Argument
object-name
The full name of the object entry.
newobject-name
The new name of the copy of the object entry. If you specify the
name of an existing directory in the target subtree, the object is
recreated in that directory with its original object name.
Description
This command creates a copy of an object entry with a new full
name. This is useful for resolving duplicate name conflicts that
result from a merge of two subtrees. The object's writable attribute
values are retained, but DNS$CTS and DNS$UTS attribute values are
not preserved.
NOTE
Although all origianl ACEs are retained, the new object also
inherits all ACEs that may be propagated from the new parent
directory in the target subtree. The principal executing the
recreate object command is granted full access to the new
object.
Asterisk wildcards are acceptable in both arguments. This command
does not modify or delete the source object entry.
ACCESS RIGHTS
You must have read, write, and delete access to the directory in
which you intend to re-create the object entry.
3.1 – example
The following command re-creates the existing object entry .sth.obj2 as a new object entry named .pjl.obj4. dns> recreate object .sth.obj2 as object .pjl.obj4
