create(8dts)  —  Maintenance

NAME

create - Creates the DCE DTS entity on the specified node

SYNOPSIS

dtscp create type type

ARGUMENTS

type typeSpecifies the type of DTS entity to be created on the specified node.  Specify one of the following for type:

clerkThe DTS entity is created as a clerk.  (This is the default setting.) 

serverThe DTS entity is created as a server. 

DESCRIPTION

The create command creates a time server or time clerk entity on the system on which the command is entered. 

After the Distributed Time Service (DTS) entity is created, it is still in a nonfunctioning state.  To put it into operation, you must invoke dtscp enable, which causes an immediate synchronization to take place.  For more information, see the enable(8dts) reference page. 

Privileges Required

You must have w (write) permission on the access control list (ACL) associated with the DTS entity in order to execute the command. 

NOTES

This command is replaced at DCE Version 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE. 

EXAMPLES

dtscp> create type server
