Siemens V4.0 2.2.3 Share table (list of shared resources)

Introduction to Advanced Server for UNIX Shared resources

Product Manual U7613-J-Z815-6-76

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 setti ng UseEAs=1,

you will now have to rename all hidden shadow files with the extended file a ttributes.

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‘

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

echo rename "$eafile" to "$newfile"

mv "$eafile" "$newfile"

done

Adv anced 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 sta rted. The

various types of shared resources are introduced in the following s ections.
