-n serverName
Specifies the name of the object database and the corresponding server.
5.1.3 Modifying an Existing Object Database
Use the pdmoddb command to modify an existing object database. This
command modifies the attributes you specify on the command line if the
attribute already exists in the database. If the specified attribute does not
exist, the pdmoddb command creates the attribute and assigns the specified
value. The command also adds any default attributes that do not already
exist and that you do not specify on the command line.
The pdmoddb command cannot be used to modify a database that is in use
by an operating server. The server must be shut down before pdmoddb can
access the database file.
The pdmoddb command displays an error message and exits if the database
you specify does not exist or is in use.
The pdmoddb command has the following command-line syntax:
pdmoddb [-A adminACL] [- h] [-n serverName] [-s spoolDIR][-tserverType]
-A adminACL
Specifies the access control list (ACL) for the server. The default is
name group.
-h
Displays a list of the supported options.
-n serverName
Specifies the name of the object database as well as the corresponding
server.
-s spoolDir
Specifies the location where the server spools documents to be
printed. The spool directory spoolDir can be any valid UNIX directory
pathname. The default is /var/spool/pd/serverName ServerName
is as specified with the -n option.
-t serverType
Specifies the type of object database, SPL or SUP.
