HP Resource Sharing for MPE/iX

Displaying the Share Status 

You can display the status of available shares in the group to which you
are logged on.  If you have SM or NM capabilities, the Share Status will
show the status of all shares on the system.  If you have AM capability,
the Share Status will show the status of all shares in your account.

   *   If you use the Share Status function label, you will see share
       permissions, sharenames, pathnames, and the node names associated
       with each connection. 

   *   If you use RESMGR's commands to display Share Status, you can
       specify options to examine share passwords, activity, and current
       connections (see Chapter 11, "Resource Manager Commands").

To display the Share Status: 

   1.  Access the main RESMGR screen, then choose  Share f1.

   2.  Choose  Share Status f5.  To cancel the display, press CTRLY.

Here is an example of a Share Status display:

                    Share Status

     Access   Sharename       Path Name           Name Using
     ----------------------------------------------------------
     ***     LASERJET
     RWC     JOAN       \OAKACCT\OAKGROUP         JOANHART.NODE
     R--     ANNA       \OAKACCT\OAKGROUP\SUBDIR  ANNASMITH.NODE

Access                Permissions associated with each of the currently
                      shared resources:
                             R  = read
                             W  = write
                             C  = create
                             -  = none
                             *  = not applicable

                      In the sample screen above, the first shared
                      resource is a printer.  Its access status indicates
                      that permissions are not applicable.  Once the
                      System Manager has shared a printer, any user on
                      the network can access it, provided the user has a
                      password to the device.  The second shared resource
                      is a shared disc with a sharename of JOAN. It has
                      access permission of RWC (Read, Write, Create).

                      The third shared resource is a share to a
                      subdirectory with a sharename of ANNA. This
                      subdirectory is available for read access only.

Sharename             User-defined name for the physical path to shared
                      devices and discs.  In the sample screen above,
                      LASERJET is the sharename for a shared printer.
                      JOAN is a sharename representing a path to a shared
                      disc.  ANNA is a sharename representing a path to a
                      subdirectory of the shared disc called JOAN.

Path Name             Connection path of each shared disc in the account.
                      In the example, the shared disc has a pathname of
                      \OAKACCT\OAKGROUP, identifying the connection path
                      to the disc's root directory.  The connection path
                      of \OAKACCT\OAKGROUP is associated with the
                      sharename of JOAN.

Name Using            Node names of active connections to shared discs,
                      printers, and plotters.  Each computer on the
                      network has a node name that identifies it to the
                      other computers.  In the example, a user is
                      connected to the shared disc from the computer
                      whose node name is JOANHART.NODE.
