Complete an initial editing and cleanup pass for all section one man pages. Fix various conversion problems, formatting inconsistencies, and obvious problems. Please note that no editing for content has yet been done; this is solely editing for formatting and correct conversion to POD. Also, add some additional section five man pages that were omitted from the first conversion run due to unusual file names, and globally replace CAVEATS with CAUTIONS in the man pages to match the original section name. The section one man pages should now be in reasonable shape and ready for additional review and further updates, although there are probably still remaining obvious problems. ==================== This delta was composed from multiple commits as part of the CVS->Git migration. The checkin message with each commit was inconsistent. The following are the additional commit messages. ==================== This file got the wrong name when it was originally committed. Fix.

|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The B<vos create> command creates a read/write volume with the name
|
|
specified by the B<-name> argument at the site specified by the B<-server>
|
|
and B<-partition> arguments. In addition, the command allocates or sets
|
|
the following:
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
Volume ID numbers for the read/write volume and its associated read-only
|
|
and backup volumes (this command does not actually create the latter two
|
|
types of volume). A volume ID number is an identification number
|
|
guaranteed to be unique within a cell.
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
An access control list (ACL) associated with the volume's root directory,
|
|
which takes the same name as volume's mount point when the volume is
|
|
mounted with the B<fs mkmount> command. An entry that grants all seven
|
|
permissions to the members of the system:administrators group is
|
|
automatically placed on the ACL. (In addition, the File Server by default
|
|
always implicitly grants the C<l> (lookup) and C<a> (administer)
|
|
permissions on every ACL to members of the system:administrators group,
|
|
even when the group does not appear on an ACL; use the B<-implicit>
|
|
argument to the B<fileserver> initialization command to alter the set of
|
|
rights on a server-by-server basis if desired.)
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
The volume's space quota, set to 5000 kilobyte blocks by default. Use the
|
|
B<-maxquota> argument to specify a different quota, or use the B<fs
|
|
setquota> command to change the volume's quota after mounting the volume
|
|
with the B<fs mkmount> command.
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
The volume is empty when created. To access it via the Cache Manager,
|
|
mount it in the file space by using the B<fs mkmount> command.
|
|
|
|
=head1 OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item B<-server> <I<server name>>
|
|
|
|
Identifies the file server machine on which to create the read/write
|
|
volume. Provide the machine's IP address or its host name (either fully
|
|
qualified or using an unambiguous abbreviation). For details, see
|
|
L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-partition> <I<partition name>>
|
|
|
|
Identifies the partition on which to create the read/write volume, on the
|
|
file server machine specified by the B<-server> argument. Provide the
|
|
partition's complete name with preceding slash (for example, C</vicepa>)
|
|
or use one of the three acceptable abbreviated forms. For details, see
|
|
L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-name> <I<volume name>>
|
|
|
|
Specifies a name for the read/write volume. The maximum length is 22
|
|
characters, which can include any alphanumeric or punctuation
|
|
character. By convention, periods separate the fields in a name. Do not
|
|
apply the C<.backup> or C<.readonly> extension to a read/write volume
|
|
name; they are reserved for the Volume Server to add to the read/write
|
|
name when creating those backup and read-only volumes respectively.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-maxquota> <I<volume quota>>
|
|
|
|
Specifies the maximum amount of disk space the volume can use, as a number
|
|
of kilobyte blocks (a value of C<1024> is one megabyte). The value C<0>
|
|
(zero) grants an unlimited quota, but the size of the disk partition that
|
|
houses the volume places an absolute limit on its size. If this argument
|
|
is omitted, the default value is C<5000>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-cell> <I<cell name>>
|
|
|
|
Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument
|
|
with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-noauth>
|
|
|
|
Assigns the unprivileged identity C<anonymous> to the issuer. Do not
|
|
combine this flag with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see
|
|
L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-localauth>
|
|
|
|
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
|
|
F</usr/afs/etc/KeyFile> file. The B<vos> command interpreter presents it
|
|
to the Volume Server and Volume Location Server during mutual
|
|
authentication. Do not combine this flag with the B<-cell> argument or
|
|
B<-noauth> flag. For more details, see L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-verbose>
|
|
|
|
Produces on the standard output stream a detailed trace of the command's
|
|
execution. If this argument is omitted, only warnings and error messages
|
|
appear.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-help>
|
|
|
|
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are
|
|
ignored.
|
|

|
|
|
|
=head1 OUTPUT
|
|
|
|
The Volume Server produces the following message to confirm that it
|
|
created the volume:
|
|
|
|
Volume <volume_ID> created on partition <partition_name> of <machine_name>
|
|
|
|
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
The following command creates the read/write volume C<user.pat> on the
|
|
F</vicepf> partition of the file server machine C<fs4.abc.com>.
|
|
|
|
% vos create -server fs4.abc.com -partition /vicepf -name user.pat
|
|
Volume user.pat created on partition /vicepf of fs4.abc.com
|
|
|
|
=head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
|
|
|
|
The issuer must be listed in the F</usr/afs/etc/UserList> file on the
|
|
machine specified with the B<-server> argument and on each database server
|
|
machine. If the B<-localauth> flag is included, the issuer must instead be
|
|
logged on to a server machine as the local superuser C<root>.
