Considerations
ALIAS OSS { user-name }
{ user-number }
specifies a NonStop Kernel user ID, referred to as the mapped user ID, to be used by
this NFS user when requesting file access. The NonStop Kernel user ID must
already be defined in the USERID file on the system on which the OSS NFS
manager process is running. user-name must be a NonStop Kernel user name. If
you omit the ALIAS OSS attribute, the user has no mapped user ID.
COMMENT “string”
is an optional attribute that allows you to include information about the user. The
information is in readable ASCII format and can be from 1 through 128 characters
long. For example, you might use this attribute to record the user’s full name and
office extension.
Considerations
Consider the following points when using the ALTER USER command:
•
ALTER USER is a sensitive command requiring super-ID access.
•
To remove an existing mapped user ID, specify the ALIAS OSS attribute without a
user specification. To remove an existing user comment, specify the COMMENT
attribute with an empty string.
•
To alter a USER object, you must be the super ID.
•
Use the INFO USER command to determine the current attribute values of a USER
object.
•
If you specify multiple parameters in any ALTER command and an error occurs,
some of the processing might be complete even though the processing was
interrupted. Use the appropriate INFO command to determine which of the
requested changes were made before the error occurred.
•
GROUPID and USERID cannot be modified with the ALTER USER command.
Example
The following command alters the OSS mapped user ID of a user named phil:
->ALTER USER phil, ALIAS OSS sales_mgr
DELETE EXPORT Command
The DELETE EXPORT command removes specified EXPORT objects from the OSS
NFS subsystem. The deletion of an EXPORT object prevents the granting of new
remote mounts against the exported file system, but does not affect the status of remote
mounts that have already been granted.
