The ls command displays the contents of a context.

Syntax

ls [options] [context1] [context2] [obj|context]...

Options

The following table describes the ls command options:

Example

The following command displays contents of the root Context in short format:

$ ls /

etc/      public/

The following command displays contents of the root Context in long format:

$ ls -l
Read      Write    Exec        Owner    Date       Time      Type       Name
PUBLIC    SYS      PUBLIC      SYS      Dec 14     14:59     Context    etc
PUBLIC    PUBLIC   PUBLIC      SYS      Dec 14     14:59     Context    public

The cd command changes the working context. This command is similar to the Unix cd command to change directories.

Example

The following command changes the context to root Context

$ cd /

The pwd command lists the current working context.

Example

If the current context is /test/alpha, then the output of the pwd command is the following:

$ pwd

/test/alpha/

The chown command changes the ownership of the context or the object.

Syntax

chown [options] {user | role} <object name>

Options

The following table describes the chown command options:

Example

The following command makes HR the owner of the /alpha/beta/gamma command:

$ chown HR /alpha/beta/gamma

The mkdir command creates a context with the given name.

Options

The following table describes the mkdir command options:

Example

The following command creates a Context called /test/alpha, where the /test context exists already:

mkdir /test/alpha

The following command creates a Context called /test/alpha/beta/gamma, where the /test/alpha/beta context does not exist:

$ mkdir -path /test/alpha/beta/gamma

The rm command is analogous to the rm UNIX shell command. This command removes an object or a context, including its contents.

Options

The following table describes the rm command options:

Examples

The following command removes the object /test/bank:

rm /test/bank

The following command removes the context /test/release3 and its contents:

rm -r /test/release3

The ln command is analogous to the UNIX ln command. A link is a synonym for a context or an object. When you move a context or an object, the reference to the context or object may become invalid. The ln command creates a link with the old name and makes the object accessible by both the old and the new name.

Syntax

ln [-symbolic | -s] <object> <link>

Options

The following table describes the ln command options:

Example

The following command preserves access to the old object even after the name of the object is changed to new:

$ mv old new
$ ln new old

The mv command changes the name (or rebinds old names) of a context or an object to a new name.

Syntax

mv <old> <new>

Example

The following command changes the name of the context /test/foo to /test/bar:

$ mv /test/foo /test/bar

The chmod command is analogous to the chmod UNIX shell command. This command changes the rights of a user or a role on a context or an object.

Syntax

chmod [options] {+|-} {r|w|x} {<user> | <role>, ...} <objectname>

Options

The following table describes the chmod command options:

Example

The following example changes rights for the /alpha/beta/gamma context to HR and NANCY:

$ chmod +x HR,NANCY /alpha/beta/gamma

The following example removes the Write rights of HR for the /alpha/beta/gamma context:

$ chmod -w HR /alpha/beta/gamma

The bind command binds an object reference or context into the JNDI namespace.

Syntax

bind <objectname> [options] [-context] [-rebind] {-class | -c <classname>} [-factory | -f <factory>] [-location | -l <URL>][-string <type_name>

<string_value> [-string <type_name> <string_value> ...]] [-binary <type_name> <string_value> [-binary <type_name> <string_value> ...]]

Options

The following table describes the bind command options:

Example

The following binds an object reference into the name space. A string and binary attribute is supplied to the reference.

bind /tmp/myprinter  -class gen.Inkjet  -factory gen.InkjetFactory  -string PRINTERNAME co2  -binary DPI  0X12C

This command binds a DataSource object in the JNDI namespace. This command binds general, XA, or pooled data sources depending on specified options.

Syntax

bindds <object_name> [options] [-help | -h] [-describe | -d] [-version | -v] [-dstype <datasource>]

[-host <hostname> -port <portnum> -sid <SID> -driver <driver_type>] [-url <db_url>]

[-g | -grant {<user> | <role>} [,{<user> | <role>}]...] [-recursiveGrant | -rg {<user> |<role>}

[,{<user> | <role>}]...] [-rebind] [-user | -u <user>]

Options

The following table describes the bindds command options:

Example

The following example binds the ds1 data source into the namespace:

bindds /test/ds1 -host localhost -port 1522 -sid orcl -driver thin
bindds /test/ds1 -url jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1522:orcl

The example uses the JDBC thin driver with a general data source, that is, OracleDataSource.

The bindurl command binds a URL object in the namespace.

Options

The following table describes the bindurl command options:

Example

The following example binds the URL string http://www.oracle.com to a URL reference /test/myURL within the namespace:

bindurl /test/myURL http://www.oracle.com -rebind

The -rebind option is used to make sure that if the /test/myURL reference previously exists, then it is rebound with the string http://www.oracle.com.
