admin.1 (2010 09)

a
admin(1) admin(1)
v[pgm]Causes
delta to prompt for Modification Request (MR) numbers as the
reason for creating a delta. The optional value specifies the name of a
(MR) number validity checking program (see delta (1)). (If this flag is set
when creating an SCCS file, the
m
option must also be used even if its
value is null).
x Causes get to create files with execute permissions.
-d flag Causes removal (deletion) of the specified flag from an SCCS file. The
-d option
can be specified only when processing existing SCCS files. Several
-d options can
be supplied on a single
admin command line. See the
-f option for allowable flag
names.
llist A list of releases to be unlocked. See the
-f option for a description of the
l flag and the syntax of a list .
-a login A login name, or numerical HP-UX group ID, to be added to the list of users
allowed to make deltas (changes) to the SCCS file. A group ID is equivalent to
specifying all login names common to that group ID. Several
a options can be used
on a single
admin command line. As many login s or numerical group IDs as
desired can be on the list simultaneously. If the list of users is empty, anyone can
add deltas. A login or group ID preceded by a
! denies permission to make deltas.
-e login A login name or numerical group ID to be erased from the list of users allowed to
make deltas (changes) to the SCCS file. Specifying a group ID is equivalent to
specifying all login names common to that group ID. Several e options can be used
on a single admin command line.
-y[comment]Thecomment text is inserted into the SCCS file as a comment for the initial delta in
a manner identical to that of delta (1). Omission of the -y option results in a
default comment line being inserted in the form:
date and time created YY / MM / DD / HH / MM / SS by
login
The
-y option is valid only if the -i and/or -n options are specified (i.e., a new
SCCS file is being created).
-m mrlist The list of Modification Request (MR) numbers is inserted into the SCCS file as the
reason for creating the initial delta, in a manner identical to delta (1). The v flag
must be set and the (MR) numbers are validated if the v flag has a value (the name
of an (MR) number validation program). Diagnostic messages occur if the v flag is
not set or (MR) validation fails.
-h Causes admin to check the structure of the SCCS file (see sccsfile(4)), and to com-
pare a newly computed checksum (the sum of all of the characters in the SCCS file
except those in the first line) with the checksum that is stored in the first line of the
SCCS file. Appropriate error diagnostics are produced.
This option inhibits writing on the file, thus canceling the effect of any other options
supplied, and therefore is only meaningful when processing existing files.
-z The SCCS file checksum is recomputed and stored in the first line of the SCCS file
(see -h, above).
Note that use of this option on a truly corrupted file can prevent future detection of
the corruption.
Access Control Lists (ACLs)
Do not add optional ACL entries to SCCS files. SCCS removes them, possibly causing unexpected and
undesirable access modes.
