Administrate POSIX file systems

&pagelevel(4)&pagelevel

Identification line: [FileSystemAdministration]

Statement line:
<op>;<file>;<size>;<flag>;<mark>;<mdir>;<auto>;<mopt>;<ov><jo>

Meanings of the terms:

<op>

Editing command: a(ppend), m(odify) or d(elete)

<file>

BS2000 file name of the container file

<size>

BS2000 file size of the container file (= file system size)

<flag>

file system flag? (Y/N)

<mark>

POSIX file system marker? (Y/N)

<mdir>

POSIX mountpoint

<auto>

Automount? (Y/N)

<mopt>

Mounting options

<ov>

Overwrite POSIX file system? (Y/N)

<jo>

Journaling ? (Y/N)

The function "Journaling" is no longer supported, i.e. the parameter is ignored.

Each statement line contains the editing command and the specifications for the BS2000 container file and for the POSIX file system. You do not have to specify all the parameters for every editing command. Therefore, when the editing command m(odify) is used, for example, the BS2000 file size does not have to be modified. The following table shows which parameter must be specified with which editing command:
