=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
up - Recursively copy directories, preserving AFS metadata
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
B<up> [B<-v>] [B<-1>] [B<-f>] [B<-r>] [B<-x>] [B<-m>]
|
|
<I<source directory>> <I<destination directory>>
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The B<up> command recursively copies the files and subdirectories in a
|
|
specified source directory to a specified destination directory. The
|
|
command interpreter changes the destination directory and the files and
|
|
subdirectories in it in the following ways:
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
It copies the source directory's access control list (ACL) to the
|
|
destination directory and its subdirectories, overwriting any existing
|
|
ACLs.
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
If the issuer is logged on as the local superuser root and has AFS tokens
|
|
as a member of the group system:administrators, then the source
|
|
directory's owner (as reported by the C<ls -ld> command) becomes the owner
|
|
of the destination directory and all files and subdirectories in
|
|
it. Otherwise, the issuer's user name is recorded as the owner.
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
If a file or directory exists in both the source and destination
|
|
directories, the source version overwrites the destination version. The
|
|
overwrite operation fails if the first (user) C<w> (write) mode bit is
|
|
turned off on the version in the destination directory, unless the B<-f>
|
|
flag is provided.
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
The modification timestamp on a file (as displayed by the C<ls -l>
|
|
command) in the source directory overwrites the timestamp on a file of the
|
|
same name in the destination directory, but the timestamp on an existing
|
|
subdirectory in the destination directory remains unchanged. If the
|
|
command creates a new subdirectory in the destination directory, the new
|
|
subdirectory's timestamp is set to the time of the copy operation, rather
|
|
than to the timestamp that the subdirectory has in the source directory.
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
The up command is idempotent, meaning that if its execution is interrupted
|
|
by a network, server machine, or process outage, then a subsequent reissue
|
|
of the same command continues from the interruption point, rather than
|
|
starting over at the beginning. This saves time and reduces network
|
|
traffic in comparison to the UNIX commands that provide similar
|
|
functionality.
|
|
|
|
The B<up> command returns a status code of C<0> (zero) only if it
|
|
succeeds. Otherwise, it returns a status code of C<1> (one).
|
|
|
|
This command does not use the syntax conventions of the AFS command
|
|
suites. Provide the command name and all option names in full.
|
|
|
|
=head1 OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item B<-v>
|
|
|
|
Prints a detailed trace to the standard output stream as the command runs.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-1>
|
|
|
|
Copies only the files in the top level source directory to the destination
|
|
directory, rather than copying recursively through subdirectories. The
|
|
source directory's ACL still overwrites the destination directory's. (This
|
|
is the number one, not the letter C<l>.)
|
|
|
|
=item B<-f>
|
|
|
|
Overwrites existing directories, subdirectories, and files even if the
|
|
first (user) C<w> (write) mode bit is turned off on the version in the
|
|
destination directory.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-m>
|
|
|
|
Recognize and copy mount points rather than traversing the volumes they
|
|
reference during the recursive copy operation. Without B<-m>, B<up>'s
|
|
default behavior is to copy the contents of all volumes and subvolumes
|
|
mounted under the source directory into the volume containing the
|
|
destination directory.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-r>
|
|
|
|
Creates a backup copy of all files overwritten in the destination
|
|
directory and its subdirectories, by adding a C<.old> extension to each
|
|
filename.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-x>
|
|
|
|
Sets the modification timestamp on each file to the time of the copying
|
|
operation.
|
|
|
|
=item I<source directory>
|
|
|
|
Names the directory to copy recursively.
|
|
|
|
=item I<destination directory>
|
|
|
|
Names the directory to which to copy. It does not have to exist already.
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
The following command copies the contents of the directory F<dir1> to
|
|
directory F<dir2>:
|
|
|
|
% up dir1 dir2
|
|
|
|
=head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
|
|
|
|
The issuer must have the C<a> (administer) permission on the ACL of both
|
|
the source and destination directories.
