TCPIP> DIRECTORY "/dove/nest/plans"

DISABLE SERVICE

For most services, this command disables the specified service but does not stop the current process. This allows you to perform an orderly shutdown of the service, which prevents new connections while allowing current connections to continue.
To stop and restart the current process:

Wait until the process exits, or stop it using the service-specific shutdown command procedure (TCPIP$service_SHUTDOWN.COM).
Restart the service using the service-specific startup command procedure (TCPIP$service_STARTUP.COM).

Note that, for the NFS server, TELNET, and RLOGIN, the DISABLE SERVICE command stops the current process.
Related commands: ENABLE SERVICE, SET SERVICE, SHOW SERVICE

Format

DISABLE SERVICE service
[ /ADDRESS=IP_address ]
[ /PORT=n ]
[ /PROCESS=process ]
[ /PROTOCOL=protocol ]

Parameters

service
Required.
Service you want to disable. Specify any service that appears in the SHOW SERVICE display. To disable all services, use a wildcard.

Qualifiers

/ADDRESS=IP_address
Optional. Default: 0.0.0.0.
Disables only the services for the specified address.
/PORT=n
Optional. Default: All ports.
Disables the service communicating at the specified port.
/PROCESS=process
Optional. Default: All processes.

DISCONNECT DEVICE_SOCKET

Interactively terminates a TCP/IP connection.

Format

DISCONNECT DEVICE_SOCKET dev_sock_number

Parameters

dev_sock_number
Required.
Number of the device socket associated with the connection you want to terminate.

Examples

#1
TCPIP> DISCONNECT DEVICE_SOCKET BG123

DISMOUNT

Makes a physically remote file system that is currently accessible to local users inaccessible.
Dismounts a remote file system or directory from local device DNFSn: (the mount point).
Required order of command keywords: the DISMOUNT keyword, immediately followed by mount_point. Example: DISMOUNT DNFS03:.
Related commands: MOUNT, SHOW MOUNT
Applies to: NFS client

Format

DISMOUNT { mount_point | logical_name }
[ /ALL ]
[ /HOST=host ]
[ /[NO]WAIT ]

restrictions

Dismounting a /SYSTEM mount requires SYSNAM privilege.
Dismounting a /GROUP mount requires GRPNAM privilege.

Parameters

mount_point
Required (if you omit logical_name and the /ALL qualifier). Default: None.
DNFS device (and optional directory tree) required to dismount. Specify this mount point as one of the following:
DNFSn: DNFSn:[dir.subdir] DNFSn:[dir.subdir]file
where:

n Value from 1 to 9999.

[ dir] or
[ dir.subdir] Directory to mount
(up to eight in addition to the [000000] directory).

file Individual file to dismount.

Note
Type the device name immediately after the keyword DISMOUNT.

If you use the /ALL qualifier, you must specify DNFSn: without the directory tree.
logical_name
Required (if you omit mount_point and the /ALL qualifier). Default: None.
Logical name that you defined with the MOUNT command of the device to dismount.

Qualifiers

/ALL
Optional.
Dismounts one of the following:

All file systems from all servers: DISMOUNT /ALL
All file systems on the specified server: DISMOUNT /ALL /HOST=host
All file systems on the specified device: DISMOUNT DNFSn: /ALL

If you dismount using the /ALL qualifier, the dismount operation completes even if the server is not currently reachable.
/HOST=host
Optional. Default: None.
Dismounts all file systems from the specified NFS server.
/WAIT

/NOWAIT
Optional. Default: /NOWAIT.

/WAIT

Does not dismount the mounted file system if outstanding activities exist.
Waits until the dismount has been completed.
If you try to access any files on the mount point, the dismount fails.

/NOWAIT

The client completes the command immediately.
Dismounting does not actually occur until all file activity has completed.

Examples

#1
TCPIP> DISMOUNT DNFS3:

Makes the file system mounted on local device DNFS3: inaccessible to local users.

#5
TCPIP> DISMOUNT /ALL /HOST="robin"

Dismounts all mount points served by host robin .

Qualifiers

/ADDRESS=IP_address
Optional. Default: 0.0.0.0.
Binds the service only to the specified address. If your host is multihomed, use this qualifier to configure the service to be offered on a specific Internet interface.
/PORT=n
Optional. Starts the service on the specified port.
/PROCESS=process
Optional.
Runs the service as the specified process.
/PROTOCOL=protocol
Optional. Default: TCP.

Examples

#1
TCPIP> ENABLE SERVICE TELNET

Format

EXIT

EXPORT

restrictions

No wildcards.

Parameters

"/path/name"
Required.
Specifies the container directory and name of the file you want to copy.
vms_file_name
Required.
Specifies the target OpenVMS file name for the copied file.

Examples

#1
TCPIP> EXPORT "/upland/sand/piper" USER1$:[BIRDY]JOBS.TXT

Copies the file piper from the container directory /upland/sand to the regular OpenVMS file JOBS.TXT in directory [BIRDY] on disk USER1$:.

HELP

Format

HELP [ topic ]

IMPORT

Copies an OpenVMS file to a UNIX file located in a container directory.
Related commands: EXPORT, DIRECTORY
Applies to: NFS server

Format

IMPORT vms_file_name "/path/name"
[ /[NO]CONVERT ]
[ /HOST=host ]
[ /[NO]LOG ]
[ /MODE=n ]
[ /UID=n ]
[ /USER_NAME=vms_user_name ]

restrictions

No wildcards.

Parameters

vms_file_name
Required.
Name of the file to copy.
"/path/name"
Required.
Specifies the name of the UNIX container directory into which you want to copy the file and a file name.

Qualifiers

/CONVERT

/NOCONVERT
Optional. Default: /CONVERT.
Converts OpenVMS record files to STREAM_LF files. (The NFS server stores UNIX files in STREAM_LF format.)
/HOST=host
Optional.
Selects specific hosts if the proxy database has multiple host entries with the same user name and UID.
/LOG

/NOLOG
Optional. Default: Displays values for host, UID, GID, and user name.
Displays a full description of the specified proxy database record for you to determine ownership.
/MODE=n
Optional. Default: 755 (provides the following protection for owner, group, and world: rwx-rx-rx).
Specifies a UNIX protection mask for a new directory.
Specify octal values in the following order: user, group, others. The values are:

0 --- No access
1 --- Execute access
2 --- Write access
3 --- Write and execute access
4 --- Read access
5 --- Read and execute access
6 --- Read and write access
7 --- Read, write, and execute access

For example, /MODE=751 provides:

User Read, write, and execute access 7 rwx

Group Read and execute access 5 rx

Other Execute access 1 x

/UID=n
Optional. Default: Determined with CREATE DIRECTORY.
Selects a specific entry in the proxy database to determine the ownership of the UNIX file.
In the proxy database:

UID and GID fields identify UNIX ownership.
User name field identifies OpenVMS ownership.

If you want to access an entry in the proxy database without a unique UID and user name combination, you might need to specify the /HOST qualifier. For example, the same UID and user name combination could appear on multiple hosts.
You can use the /UID qualifier in any combination with the /HOST and /USER_NAME qualifiers. However, if you do not have SYSPRV or BYPASS privilege, the values you specify must correspond to the values for your user name in the proxy database.
/USER_NAME=vms_user_name
Optional. Default: None.
Selects a specific entry in the proxy database to determine the ownership of the UNIX file.
The UID and GID fields in this entry establish the file's UNIX identity, while the user name field provides the OpenVMS ownership.
If you want to access an entry in the proxy database without a unique UID and user name combination, you might need to specify the /HOST qualifier. For example, the same UID and user name combination could appear on multiple hosts.
If you have SYSPRV or BYPASS privilege and do not specify the /USER_NAME qualifier, the proxy record with a UID of 0 and a GID of 1 is selected.
SYSPRV or BYPASS privilege is required to select a user name that has a UIC different from the UIC of the process running the management program.
You can use the /USER_NAME qualifier in any combination with the /HOST and /UID qualifiers. However, if you do not have SYSPRV or BYPASS privilege, the values you specify must correspond to the values for your user name in the proxy database.
If you do not specify the /USER_NAME qualifier, the proxy record with a GID of 1 and a UID of 0 is selected. If there is no proxy entry for the UID of 0, IMPORT fails.

Examples

#1
TCPIP> IMPORT USER1$:[BIRDY]JOBS.TXT "/upland/sand/piper"

Copies the file JOBS.TXT to the new file piper in the container directory /upland/sand . The file's ownership depends on the directory information specified with the CREATE DIRECTORY command.
