Re: [Veritas-bu] (1M) in Veritas Unix Commands

2009-07-01 Thread Jeff Lightner
These are indications of UNIX/Linux "man" (manual) pages.  The (1M) and
the (1) are "sections" of man.  Typically 1 = User commands and 1M =
administrative commands.  However, it is somewhat arbitrary as to who
defines what as what.  For me most NetBackup commands are
"administrative" as we don't have "users" doing things with it.

The NetBackup specific man pages are usually in your install directory
(mine is /usr/openv) so would be:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/man
/usr/openv/man
/usr/openv/java/man

If you do ls in each of those directories you can see which man pages
each contains.

You can add those directories to your MANPATH variable to be able to
read the man pages:
e.g.
export
MANPTH=$MANPTH:/usr/openv/man:/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/man:/usr/
openv/java/man

That allows you to type "man bp" for example and read its man page.

For more details type "man man" as the man command itself has a man
page.

HI,

I could find a Attribute like (1M), (1) in the commands of VERITAS UNIX.

What does it mean?

Ex: backuptrace(1M), bp(1)

Thanks,

I suppose it revolves around how one defines "partitioning the library":
Hard partitions or soft (by tape label ranges).

We have a Sun/STK SL8500 with ACSLS as the front end and have several
(unrelated) Netback Master servers (and media servers) all using the 
library concurrently.

We have not "hard partitioned" it, but rather have a tape range and
specific
tape drives assigned to each Netbackup system. We even have several 
non-Netbackup systems also using the library.

ACSLS, though, would fall into the category of "using another software
package as an interface".  I suspected ACSLS could do that but didn't
want volunteer that since I don't have firsthand knowledge of it.
