a
admin(1) admin(1)
v[pgm]Causesdelta 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 sup-
plied 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 logins 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 specify-
ing all login names common to that group ID. Several e options can be used on a sin-
gle 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 initialdelta, 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 compare
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.
EXTERNAL INFLUENCES
Environment Variables
LC_CTYPE determines the interpretation of text as single- and/or multi-byte characters.
LC_MESSAGES determines the language in which messages are displayed.
If LC_CTYPE or LC_MESSAGES is not specified in the environment or is set to the empty string, the
value of LANG is used as a default for each unspecified or empty variable. If
LANG is not specified or is set
to the empty string, a default of
C (see lang(5)) is used instead of LANG. If any internationalization vari-
able contains an invalid setting,
admin behaves as if all internationalization variables are set to
C. See
HP-UX Release 11i: December 2000 − 3 − Section 1−−15
