Specifying Lists of Names
With the Same Qualifiers
A single object specification can consist of a space-separated list of names with
qualifiers that apply to all the names. The syntax is shown in the following box:
[ subsys ] [ type ] [\ node .] name [[\node.]name] . . .
[UNDER [\ node .]$ manager ] [ hierarchy-modifier ]
DSNM applies the modifiers to all names on the list.
Examples
In this example, LONDON, BERLIN, and PARIS are groups containing SNAX,
Expand, and Pathway objects:
STATUS EXPAND LINE LONDON BERLIN PARIS
DSNM returns the status of LONDON, BERLIN, and PARIS group members that are
Expand lines.
Specifying Lists of Names
With Different Qualifiers
A command can contain several object specifications, separated by commas.
Qualifiers apply only to names within their own object specifications. If an object
specification ends with a hierarchy modifier, the hierarchy modifier applies only to
that object specification. The syntax is shown in the following box.
objectspec , objectspec [ , objectspec ]...
Examples
In this example, $PMUK and $LHF are defined on the local node:
STATUS SERVER * UNDER $PMUK, SNAX LINE LONDON BERLIN
PARIS, $LHF
The command returns the status of:
Pathway server classes under $PMUK
SNAX lines in the groups LONDON, BERLIN, and PARIS
Expand line $LHF
Note Spaces separate names that share the same qualifiers. Commas separate names with different
qualifiers.
If you want to apply a qualifier to some objects, but not to others, see “Nesting Object
Specifications,” which follows.
