System i: Integrated file system commands in the Network File System

Integrated file system commands in the Network File System

Many integrated file system commands are valid in the Network File System (NFS).
All of the commands that are listed in Accessing using CL commands and the displays that are described in Accessing using menus and displays can operate on the Network File System, except for the following commands:

APYJRNCHG

CHGJRNOBJ

CHGAUD

CHGATR

CHGAUT

CHGOWN

CHGPGP

CHKIN

CHKOUT

DSPJRN

ENDJRN

RCLLNK

RCVJRNE

RTVJRNE

SNDJRNE

STRJRN

There are some CL commands that are specific to the Network File System and other mounted file systems in general. However, it may not be safe to use these commands in a multi-thread capable process. The following table describes these commands. For a complete description of commands and displays that are related specifically to the Network File System, see OS/400^® Network File System Support
.
