LISTF
The LISTF command is used to display files that are in the NetBase directory. The display includes
all the information about the file. The flags depict the options that were specified when the file was
defined with the FILE command. The header for the display appears as follows:
O D F S P
P S L Y R L
-----LOCAL REFERENCE------ -----REMOTE EQUIVALENT----- E E A N O O
File Group Account File Group Account Node N T G C T G
The following table provides descriptions of the items in the display header.
Header Item Description
LOCAL REFERENCE
File Group Account
The name of the file as it is referenced by local processes.
REMOTE EQUIVALENT
File Group Account
The actual name of the file.
Node
The node on which the actual file exists.
OPEN
This flag is used by NetBase in conjunction with shadowing. If a
shadowed copy exists locally, this flag determines which copy to
open.
DEFAULT  If the flag is not set, NetBase will use the default option.
If the file is being opened with read only access, and a shadow
copy exists locally, the local copy is used. Otherwise the master
copy is accessed.
C  CLOSE indicates that the posting process will close the shadow
copy of the file when the master file is closed.
L  LOCAL access opens the local copy if it exists. If the local copy
is a shadow copy, file access is limited to read only.
M  MASTER access always opens the master copy regardless of
whether a shadow copy exists locally. The requested open mode
is always granted.
