NAME
       cdsalias - A dcecp object that lets you manipulate cell names in CDS

SYNOPSIS
       cdsalias catalog

       cdsalias connect

       cdsalias create cellalias_name

       cdsalias delete cellalias_name

       cdsalias help [operation | -verbose]

       cdsalias operations

ARGUMENTS
       A single, fully qualified alias name of the cell in the following form:
       /.../cellalias_name The name of the cdsalias  operation	for  which  to
       display help information.

DESCRIPTION
       The  cdsalias  object represents cell names as known by the Cell Direc‐
       tory Service (CDS).  This object lets you  manipulate  alias  and  pre‐
       ferred  names  of  DCE cells.  Each cell has one preferred name.	 Cells
       may also have alias names.  This object affects only the CDS component.
       The security server and each host must also be informed of any new cell
       aliases.

       This object can also be used to define a hierarchical relation  between
       one  cell  and  another	by  connecting the first cell's root directory
       namespace into the the second cell's namespace.	When defining a	 hier‐
       archical	 relationship, you must use the account command to establish a
       trust relationship between the cells.

       To manipulate  alias  and  preferred  names,  the  CDS_DirectoryVersion
       attribute must be set to 4.0 or greater.	 See the ATTRIBUTES section of
       the directory command for more information.

OPERATIONS
   cdsalias catalog
       Returns a list of all defined cell aliases in CDS.  The	syntax	is  as
       follows: cdsalias catalog

       The  catalog  operation	returns	 a list of all defined cell aliases in
       CDS.  Each alias name is labeled either alias or primary, depending  on
       which name is the current preferred name.

       Privileges Required

       Requires r (read) permission on the root directory of the cell.

       Examples

       dcecp> cdsalias catalog {CDS_CellAliases
	{Alias /.../green.cell.osf.org}
	{Primary /.../blue.cell.osf.org}} dcecp>

   cdsalias connect
       Establishes  a hierarchical relationship between two cells.  The syntax
       is as follows: cdsalias connect

       The connect operation creates a hierarchical relationship  between  two
       cells.	It  takes no argument.	The current preferred name of the cell
       is used and the last relative distinguished name (RDN)  is  removed  to
       identify	 the  parent  cell.  This operation returns an empty string on
       success.

       Privileges Required

       Requires a (auth_info) permission on the the local cell's  root	direc‐
       tory.   Also,  the  CDS	server principal on the machine containing the
       master replica of the local cell's root directory needs i (insert) per‐
       mission on the parent cell's root directory.

       Examples

       dcecp> cdsalias connect dcecp>

   cdsalias create
       Creates	a  new	alias  cell  name  in  CDS.  The syntax is as follows:
       cdsalias create cellalias_name

       The create operation creates  a	new  alias  cell  name	in  CDS.   The
       required	 argument  is a single fully qualified alias name of the cell.
       This operation returns an empty string on success.

       Privileges Required

       Requires a (auth_info) permission on the root directory of the cell.

       Examples

       dcecp> cdsalias create /.../green.cell.osf.org dcecp>

   cdsalias delete
       Deletes an existing alias cell name from CDS.  The syntax  is  as  fol‐
       lows: cdsalias delete cellalias_name

       The delete operation deletes an existing alias cell name from CDS.  The
       required argument is a single fully qualified alias name of  the	 cell.
       If the alias name does not exist, an error is returned.	You cannot use
       this command to delete the preferred cell name.	This operation returns
       an empty string on success.

       Privileges Required

       Requires a (auth_info) permission on the root directory of the cell.

       Examples

       dcecp> cdsalias delete /.../green.cell.osf.org dcecp>

   cdsalias help
       Returns	help information about the cdsalias object and its operations.
       The syntax is as follows: cdsalias help [operation | -verbose]

       Options Displays information about the cdsalias object.

       Used without an argument or option, the cdsalias help  command  returns
       brief  information  about each cdsalias operation.  The optional opera‐
       tion argument is the name of an operation about which you want detailed
       information.   Alternatively,  you can use the -verbose option for more
       detailed information about the cdsalias object itself.

       Privileges Required

       No special privileges are needed to use the cdsalias help command.

       Examples

       dcecp> cdsalias help catalog		Returns the aliases  known  by
       CDS for the named cell.	connect		    Establishes a hierarchical
       relationship between two cells.	create		    Creates the	 named
       cdsalias	 for the local cell.  delete		  Deletes the existing
       cdsalias from the local cell.  help		  Prints a summary  of
       command-line  options.  operations	   Returns a list of the valid
       operations for this command.  dcecp>

   cdsalias operations
       Returns a list of the operations supported by the cdsalias object.  The
       syntax is as follows: cdsalias operations

       The  list  of  available operations is in alphabetical order except for
       help and operations, which are listed last.

       Privileges Required

       No special privileges are needed to use the  cdsalias  operations  com‐
       mand.

       Examples

       dcecp>  cdsalias	 operations  catalog connect create delete help opera‐
       tions dcecp>
