The fnattr command is for updating and examining attributes
associated with an FNS named object. There are four uses for this command:
add an attribute or value, delete an attribute or value, modify an attribute’s
value, and list the contents of an attribute.
- -a
- Add an attribute
or add a value to an attribute associated with object named using composite_name.
identifier is the identifier of the attribute to manipulate; its format
is FN_ID_STRING
unless the -O or -U option is given. value1, value2 ...
are attribute values to add. The attribute syntax used for storing value1,
value2 ... is fn_attr_syntax_ascii.
- -d
- Delete attributes associated with object
named by composite_name. If identifier is not specified, all attributes
associated with the named object are deleted. If identifier is specified
without accompanying values, value1, value2, ..., the entire attribute identified
by identifier is removed. If individual attribute values, value1, value2,
..., are specified, then only these are removed from the attribute. Removal
of the last value of an attribute entails removal of the attribute as well.
The format of identifier is FN_ID_STRING
unless the -O or -U option
is given.
- -l
- List the attribute (its identifier and values) associated with
the object named by composite_name. If identifier is not specified, all
the attribute associated with the named object are displayed. The format
of identifier is FN_ID_STRING
unless the -O or -U option is given.
- -m
- Modify the values of the attribute identified by identifier associated
with the object named by composite_name. old_value is replaced by new_value
in the specified attribute. Other attributes and values associated with
composite_name are not affected. The format of identifier is FN_ID_STRING
unless the -O or -U option is given.
- -s
- Add in supersede mode. If an attribute
with the same identifier as identifier already exists, remove all its
values, and replace with value1, value2 ... If this option is omitted, the
resulting values for the specified attribute is a union of the existing
values and value1, value2 ....
- -O
- The format of identifier is FN_ID_ISO_OID_STRING,
an ASN.1 dot-separated integer list string.
- -U
- The format of identifier is
FN_ID_DCE_UUID,
a DCE UUID in string form.
The -a option is used
for adding attributes and values. This following command replaces the value
of the shoesize attribute of user/jane with the value 7.5. eg% fnattr
-as user/jane shoesize 7.5
The following command adds the value Chameleo
to the project attribute of user/jane. eg% fnattr -a user/jsmith project
Chameleo
The -d option is used for deleting attributes and values. The
following command deletes all the attributes associated with user/jane.
eg% fnattr -d user/jane
The following command deletes the attribute shoesize
associated with user/jane. eg% fnattr -d user/jane shoesize
The following
command deletes the attribute value old_project from the projects attribute
associated with user/jane. eg% fnattr -d user/jane projects old_project
The -m option is for modifying an attribute value. The following command
replaces the value Chameleo by Dungeon in the projects attribute associated
with user/jsmith.
eg% fnattr -m user/jsmith projects Chameleo Dungeon
The
-l option is used for listing attributes and their values. The following
command lists all the attributes associated with user/jane.
eg% fnattr
-l user/jane
The following command list the values of the project attribute
of user/jane. eg% fnattr -l user/jane project
