Network File Names
The network form identifies files on remote systems. The syntax
for network file names is:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| \<system-name>.$<remote-volume>.<subvolume>.<disc-file-name> |
| |
| <system-name> identifies a specific system within a |
| network. This name may be up to seven |
| characters long. |
| |
| <remote-volume> identifies a physical disc pack mounted |
| on a disc drive. This name may be up to |
| six characters long. |
| |
| <subvolume-name> identifies a set of files on a disc, as |
| defined by the user. This name may be up |
| to eight characters long. |
| |
| <disc-file-name> identifies a particular file within the |
| subvolume. This name may be up to eight |
| characters long. |
| |
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The next example illustrates the network form of the file name
presented in the previous example:
\nusys.$mkt.sales.tracking
In this case:
"\nusys" is the name of the system.
"$mkt" is the remote volume name.
"sales" is the subvolume name.
"tracking" is the disc file name.
