VIWSB(8n)               COMMAND REFERENCE               VIWSB(8n)



NAME
     viwsb - edit and/or check the dumptable file

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/viwsb [ -c [ filename ... ] ]

DESCRIPTION
     With no arguments, viwsb locks the file /etc/dumptable,
     copies its contents to a temporary file, and invokes the
     editor (default = vi) on the temporary file.  After the
     editor is exited, the modified data is checked as described
     below.  If no problems are found, the temporary file
     replaces the old dumptable file, which is unlocked.  If only
     problems in the Warning category are found, the user may
     re-edit the file, quit without updating, or update the
     dumptable file, ignoring the warnings.  If any problems in
     the ERROR category are found, the user may re-edit the file
     or quit without updating.

     If called with the -c option, viwsb will check the named
     files as described below.  If no names are given,
     /etc/dumptable is checked.
