serviceName

    The name by which the service is known to the local area network.
    The service name can consists of alphanumeric characters and
    dollar signs ($). It can be up to and include 255 characters.
    Wildcards are permitted in this command.

 device-or-partitionName

    The device or partition name is the name of the OpenVMS disk
    device or partition as it is to be known to the local area
    network. The name of the device or partition that you enter must
    have been created previously.

    Explanations of device and partition names follow.

    o  Device names

       Devices served to the local area network are OpenVMS disk
       devices; use OpenVMS device names when you specify an
       InfoServer device name. Note that the device name must either
       match exactly the name that the SHOW SERVICES command displays
       or must contain wildcards. (Wildcards are permitted in this
       command.)

       A disk specification must end with a colon.

    o  Partition names

       Partitions are container files that are served to the network.
       As such, they have OpenVMS file names with a default file type
       of ".ESS$PARTITION". Partition names, including the device,
       directory, and file name, can be no more than 242 characters
       in length.

       The partition name can be used to further identify the
       specific service selected. Support for partitions is limited
       in this version, however. VSI strongly recommends that you use
       LD devices to support partitioned hard drives. See the DCL
       command LD HELP for more information.
