5.3 Creating a Domain
To create a domain, issue the createdomain <domain_name> command, where
<domain_name> is the name you wish to assign the domain. The <domain_name> can be
a maximum of 31 characters in length.
If you wish to add an informational note to a domain during its creation, issue the
createdomain -comment <comment> <domain_name> command, where <comment>
is the text of the note you wish to add about the domain being created. The comment
length is restricted to 511 characters.
You can create up to 1024 domains within a single InServ system.
For additional information about Domains, refer to the InForm OS Concepts Guide.
5.4 Viewing Domains
From time to time, you may wish to view the domains in your system. Additionally, when
managing your domain objects as described in 5.7 Managing Domain Objects on page 5.5, you
may need to view the objects’ domain associations.
To view the domains in your system, issue the showdomain -d command. Refer to the
InForm OS Command Line Interface Reference for details about this command.
