m_rm [-f][-l][-r][-R][-v] url[url]

m_chmod mode url [url]

Create a multifile system. control_url is the specifying the directory to be created. Options: -m mode: Set the protection for the created multifile system, mode is one of the symbols accepted by the UNIX chmod command. -mv file: Specify that all multifiles in a multidirectory will have vfiles (segmented files) as their partitions. By default, the multifiles in a multidirectory have standard files in their partitions. -max bytes or max-segment-size bytes: Specify the maximum segment size for vfile partitions. The default is the system specific value. Delete a multifile system. Create a multidirectory. Path is the directory under which the directory will be created. Remove empty multi-directories or directories. Remove multifiles or files. Options: -f: Force, as in the UNIX rm command. -l: Interactive, as in the UNIX rm command. -r: Recursive as in the UNIX rm command. -R: Recursive, as in the UNIX rm command (same as r). -v: Verbose. Emit the URL for each file, multifile, directory, or multidirectory removed. Change the protection of a file or directory of any type. Setting the protection on multifiles entails setting the identical protection on the control file and on each partition file.

If the file specified by path exists, update its access time to the current time. If the file does not exist, create it as an empty file. Path may be of type file or mfile. Make a copy of each source-file with the name and path specified by dest-url. If dest-url is a directory, the files are copied to that directory under their original names. Each source-file-url must be a file, not a directory. Options: -a: Copy all source files at the same time. -report: Produce monitor reports as specified in the environment variable AB_REPORT. -v: Emit a message to the standard output as each file is copied. Move files or directories specified by source-pathn to the name and path specified by dest-path. List the specified files or directories. Options: -partitions: Following the line of the path, print a line for all its partitions. -max-skew skew: Following the line for each path, print a line for all its partitions with skew greater than skew. This option is meaningful only when l is supplied. -no-commas: Print directory sizes without commas. This option is meaningful only when l is supplied. -l: Long format. This format is similar to the long format printed by the UNIX ls command. Print to stdout the disk usage for each item specified by a url in units of 1024 byte blocks; the items skew, computed on the number of blocks occupied by each partition; and the URL for each item. Options: -s: Folowing the line for each url, print the total for the specified URLs without the totals for all the subdirectories of the URLs.

Rests of the options are the same as above. For each path, print to stdout the following information about the containing multifile system or (standard) file system. Options: -terse: Reduce the output to a single number per line, the number of blocks available in the specified file system. -fullest: Print information about the partitions of the multifile system that have the fewest disk blocks available. Rest are the same as above. Print to stdout various information about the multifile, multidirectory, file, or directory. Options: -n: Print the number of partitions (1 if the file is not a multifile). -hosts: Print the hostnames of the partitions. -paths: (The default) Prints the pathnames of the partitions. -mfs: Print the pathname of the multifile system. Produces a human readable report that shows how input data is interpreted by Ab Initio metadata. Optionally, it can print the metadata or a description of the metadata. It can also evaluate specified expressions within each record. Create a catalog. Remove a catalog. List the catalog in text form. It table names are specified, list the entries for those tables. If data URLs are specified, list the entries for those data URLs. If neither table names nor data URLs are specified, list all entries. Add an entry to the catalog. The table name, key, data, URL and metadata URL must all be supplied. Remove entries from the catalog as specified by table names or data URLs. Produce a text representation of the

m_catalog_import catalog catalog_url

specified catalog on standard output. Populate the specified catalog using the text representation of a catalog provided on standard input. If the catalog exists, it must be empty.
