Commands With an argument, the drive partition table is examined and shown. If there is no SFS partition and enough disk space for one, you are asked if you want to delete the partition. The disk command does not manage volumes. It repairs the partition table in emergencies. After deleting a partition, promptly shutdown and reboot the system. Example: disk disk hrdc0d0 disk aha1d30 echo The echo command simply shows its arguments. It is usually used in command scripts to report progress.
PAGE 40
Managing the HP NetStorage 6000 Using Telnet hostlook The hostlook command is used to verify that the hosts file is correct. Each hostname/addr argument is looked up in the hosts file, and the results of the are reported. A hostname/addr argument may be a host name (e.g. a client), or a host Internet address (e.g. 192.3.4.5). Wildcards may not be used. Usage: hostlook hostname/addr … Example: hostlook a client hostlook 192.3.4.
PAGE 41
Commands locks The locks command reports the current file locks held by network clients. The actual name of the file on which locks are held is not available. Instead, the volume name and node number are reported, which should help you identify the actual file. Every attempt is made to identify the lock owner as a process ID on a particular client. Usage: locks locks See lockd, statd, and crashlocks. load The load command is used to load a module or to report the loaded modules.

Usage: netstat [-i|-r] network file systemSee NFS. nfsunmount Use the nfsunmount command is to unmount a remote NFS volume. Usage: nfsunmount localname Example: nfsunmount /xsvol See nfsmount.
PAGE 43
Commands perm The permission this server may allow itself for accessing remote files. This may be for read-only access, in which case this server will make no attempt to create or modify files on the remote server. Or it may be rw for read-write access, in which case this server may create or modify files. In order to restore files from tape to the remote server, this must be set to rw. Default: perm=rw. During backup, the files and directories are read using user ID 0 (root).
PAGE 44
Managing the HP NetStorage 6000 Using Telnet pwtest The pwtest command is used to verify a password. The password may be for a user, for administrative access to the command interpreter and menus, or for access to the modems. The last usage synopsis is used when for a user with the name admin or modem. You are asked to enter the password, and as you do the * character is printed for security. When you press the enter key, you are told whether or not the pass-word is correct.
PAGE 45
Commands The packets sent are the same as the ping command (ICMP protocol). Nsend is the number of packets to send; the default is one. Size is the size in bytes of each packet sent; the default is 56 bytes. Maxfail is the maximum number of retries for the entire test; the default is three. Usage: ratenet hostname/addr [ nsend [ size [ maxfail ] ] ] Example: ratenet aclient ratenet 192.3.4.10 ratenet aclient 1000 ratenet other 100 1200 ratenet 192.3.4.

Usage: show [ varname/patn … ] Example: show show com1.* show *.

Managing the HP NetStorage 6000 Using Telnet Usage: status [ what … ] Example: status status up rm fs tar The tar command is used to manipulate tape archives. The first letter of mode must be one of: c Create a new archive containing directories. Archives created with this mode are written in the traditional tar format, and are easily imported and exported by many different systems. F Make full backup of directories, the file.bdl argument is required.
PAGE 49
Commands L Specifies the length of the tape in megabytes. This also enables multi-tape archives (default 0, not multi-tape). This option only has effect when creating a new archive with one of the c, F, or P modes. Most multi-volume tar commands sense the end-oftape based on write errors, but this tar does not. Files are not split across multiple tape volumes. When a file will not fit on the current tape (based on the file size and the tape size), the current tape ends and the next tape is requested.

Managing the HP NetStorage 6000 Using Telnet uptime The uptime command reports how long the server has been running, the current time of day in 24-hour format, and the recent CPU utilization. Usage: userlook uptime The userlook command is used to verify that the passwd file is correct. Each username/uid argument is looked up in the passwd file, and the results of the lookup are reported. A username/uid argument may be a user’s login (e.g., fred, jjsmith), or a user’s UID (e.g., 211, 1047).
