rsrc create resource_name [-desc description]

A web resource is a web server that serves as the back-end of a WebSEAL GSO-enabled junction. The web resource name must be specified with the -T option when the GSO-enabled WebSEAL junction is created.

Options

-desc description

Specifies a description for the resource. Descriptions containing a space must be enclosed in double quotation marks. (Optional)

A valid description is an alphanumeric string that is not case-sensitive. String values are expected to be characters that are part of the local code set. If the description contains a space, enclose the description in double quotation marks.

Examples of descriptions are “Engineering Web server - Room 4807” and “Printer in room 345, Bldg 2”.

resource_name

Name of the resource to be created.

A valid resource name is an alphanumeric string that is not case-sensitive. If the resource is a GSO resource, certain characters are not allowed. See Characters disallowed for GSO names for the list of these characters.

Examples of resource names are engwebs01 and JonesData.
