set commands A–21
A.19.2 set attribute
The
set attribute
command creates a system attribute and/or sets the value of the attribute. You can
only set the values of certain attributes.
In most cases, the new attribute or value does not come into effect until you configure servers or reconfigure
file systems. The
set attribute
command prints a message describing the action that is needed to bring
the new attribute or value into effect.
TIP: The
set attribute
command is the same as the
create attribute
command.
Syntax
set attribute attribute_name=attribute_value
Arguments
attribute_name
Required. Specify the name and value of a new or existing attribute.
If the attribute value contains spaces, enclose the value in double quotes.
Example
The following example creates the
nickname
attribute and sets its value to
west
:
sfs> set attribute nickname=west
