=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
B<vsys> is a development tool to make AFS system calls from the command
|
||
|
|
line. <I<call number>> is the AFS system call to be invoked. <I<parms>>+
|
||
|
|
are the values to pass to the system call. Knowledge of the AFS system
|
||
|
|
call layer is required to know valid call numbers and parameters.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
=head1 CAUTIONS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
B<vsys> is intended for debugging AFS at a low level and is therefore
|
||
|
|
intended for AFS developers. System Administrators and AFS users should
|
||
|
|
use the higher-level interfaces provided by L<fs(1)>, L<aklog(1)>,
|
||
|
|
L<klog(1)>, and L<pagsh(1)> instead.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
B<vsys> provides a way to pass arbitrary data into the AFS system call
|
||
|
|
mechanism. Caution should be taken when using or providing this binary on
|
||
|
|
a system, as incorrect use as a privileged user could cause a system to
|
||
|
|
panic, hang, or perform an unsafe operation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
=head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The issuer must be logged in as the local superuser root.
