PTS_SETMAX(1) AFS Command Reference PTS_SETMAX(1)NAMEpts_setmax - Sets the value of the max group id or max user id counter
SYNOPSIS
pts setmax [-group <group max>] [-user <user max>]
[-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth] [-force] [-help]
pts setm [-g group max>] [-u <user max>]
[-c <cell name>] [-n] [-l] [-f] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The pts setmax command sets the value of one or both counters that
track the IDs the Protection Server allocates to new users, machines,
or groups: the "max user id" counter for the AFS user IDs (AFS UIDs)
assigned to users and machines, and the "max group id" counter for the
AFS group IDs (AFS GIDs) assigned to groups.
Use the pts listmax command to display the current value of both
counters.
OPTIONS-group <group max>
Sets the "max group id" counter. Precede the value with a hyphen to
indicate that it is negative. When an administrator next uses the
pts creategroup command to create a group entry and does not
include that command's -id argument, the Protection Server assigns
the group an AFS GID one less (more negative) than this value.
-user <user max>
Sets the "max user id" counter. When an administrator next uses the
pts createuser command to create a user or machine entry and does
not include that command's -id argument, the Protection Server
assigns the group an AFS UID one greater than this value.
-cell <cell name>
Names the cell in which to run the command. For more details, see
pts(1).
-force
Enables the command to continue executing as far as possible when
errors or other problems occur, rather than halting execution at
the first error.
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
are ignored.
-localauth
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
/usr/afs/etc/KeyFile file. Do not combine this flag with the -cell
or -noauth options. For more details, see pts(1).
-noauth
Assigns the unprivileged identity anonymous to the issuer. For more
details, see pts(1).
EXAMPLES
The following command sets the "max group id" counter to -500 and the
"max user id" counter to 1000.
% pts setmax -group -500 -user 1000
PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must belong to the system:administrators group.
