Introduction to Advanced Server for UNIX

Shared resources

Existing configurations are not modified during an upgrade installation. You should therefore use either the Registry Editor or the regconfig command to set the value of the EAFilePrefix parameter in the registry to .EA@ under the key

SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\AdvancedServer

\FileServiceParameters.

If you previously operated Advanced Server for UNIX V4.0A10 with the setting UseEAs=1, you will now have to rename all hidden shadow files with the extended file attributes.

Use the following command to display all existing shadow files:

find / -type f -name ’.ea@*’ -print

The following shell script can be used to give all old shadow files the new prefix .EA@:

for eafile in ‘find / -type f -name ’.ea@*’ -print‘ do

newfile="‘echo $eafile sed ’s/\.ea@/.EA@/’‘" echo rename "$eafile" to "$newfile"

mv "$eafile" "$newfile" done

Advanced Server for UNIX will only find the extended attributes of a file if the

! associated hidden shadow file has the same prefix as is set in the current Advanced Server for UNIX configuration instance. It would be best to change the file and directory names and the registry parameters when the server is stopped and then start the server again.

2.2.3 Share table (list of shared resources)

All shared resources are comprised in the share table. Every resource shared using the command net share is entered in the share table. Every resource deleted using net share /delete is removed from the share table.

Advanced Server for UNIX stores the share table in an internal format in the registry. The share table is loaded automatically each time Advanced Server for UNIX is started. The various types of shared resources are introduced in the following sections.
