Modifies characteristics for the specified directory.
SYNOPSIS
SET DIRECTORY directory-name characteristic
Arguments
directory-name
The full name of the directory to be modified.
characteristic
The name and value of the characteristic to be modified. Specify one
or more of the following:
DNS$Convergence [=] value
DNS$InCHName [=] boolean
DNS$UpgradeTo [=] v.n
Description
This command modifies characteristics for the specified directory.
You can specify one or more of the listed characteristics to be
modified. Use a comma to separate characteristics.
Characteristics
DNS$Convergence [=] value
Specifies the degree of consistency among replicas. Specify the
value argument as one of the following:
Low The next skulk distributes all updates that occurred
since the previous skulk. Skulks occur at least once
every 24 hours.
Medium DECdns attempts to propagate an update to all
replicas. If the attempt fails, the next scheduled
skulk makes the replicas consistent. Skulks occur at
least once every 12 hours.
High DECdns attempts to propagate an update to all
replicas. If that attempt fails (for example, if
one of the replicas is unavailable), a skulk is
scheduled for within 1 hour. Background skulks will
occur at least once every 12 hours. Use this setting
temporarily and briefly because it uses extensive
system resources.
By default, every directory inherits the convergence setting of its
parent at creation time. The default setting of the root directory
is medium.
DNS$InCHName [=] boolean
Specifies whether a directory or any of its descendants can store
clearinghouse names. The boolean argument can be specified as one of
the following:
True The directory or its descendants can store clearinghouse
names.
False The directory or its descendants cannot store
clearinghouse names. This is the default value.
DNS$UpgradeTo [=] v.n
Controls the upgrading of a directory from one version of DECdns to
another. By modifying this attribute, you can initiate the upgrading
of a directory to a higher version of DECdns. Specify the value as
v.n where v indicates the major version number and n specifies the
minor version number. There is no default.
ACCESS RIGHTS
You must have write access to the directory whose attribute you
intend to modify.
