NAME

show link - Displays attribute information about the specified soft link

SYNOPSIS

cdscp show link link-name [attribute-name] [with attribute-name = attribute-value]

ARGUMENTS

link-nameThe full name of a specific soft link.  The last simple name can contain wildcard characters. 

attribute-name
The name of a particular attribute; see Description for valid attribute names.

attribute-value
The value of a particular attribute.

DESCRIPTION

The show link command displays the names and values of the attributes specified in attribute-name.  You can use a combination of attributes in any sequence in a single command. Use a space to separate multiple attributes.  You can use a with attribute-name = attribute-value clause to limit output only to soft links whose attributes have values equal to the specified values.  A space must precede and follow the = (equals sign).  If you do not supply any attributes, the command displays all attributes and their values. The following is a description of soft link attributes:

CDS_CTSSpecifies the creation timestamp (CTS) of this soft link

CDS_LinkTarget
Specifies the full name of the directory, object entry, or other soft link to which the soft link points

CDS_LinkTimeout
Specifies a timeout value after which the soft link is either checked or deleted

CDS_UTSSpecifies the timestamp of the most recent update to an attribute of the soft link

Privilege Required

You must have read permission to the soft link.  If you specify a wildcard soft link name, you also need read permission to the directory that stores the soft link. 

NOTE

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

EXAMPLE

The following command displays the current values of all the attributes associated with the soft link /.:/sales/region1.
