1  MAP
   Maps (logically links) one of the following to the NFS server:

   o  OpenVMS disk - Requires one execution of MAP to map the disk
      to a UNIX path name.

   o  Container file system - Requires two executions of MAP. The
      first maps the disk, and the second maps the file system.

   Mapping creates a logical file system, also called an NFS file
   system. A logical file system (with an entry in the export
   database) is accessible to NFS client users for mounting.

   To make a file system available on all nodes of a cluster, map it
   on each node.

   Mapping is one step in the tasks necessary to give remote users
   access to a file system that physically resides on an OpenVMS
   host running an NFS server:

   1. Map the file system.

   2. Export the file system (add an entry in the export database).

   3. Give potential users entries in the proxy database.

   MAP settings are not permanent. To map file systems in the
   permanent configuration database, issue SET CONFIGURATION
   [NO]MAP.

   CONFIGURATION MAP, SET CONFIGURATION NOMAP, SHOW MAP, SHOW

   Format

     MAP  "file system name" logical_file_system


2  Restrictions
   Requires SYSPRV and BYPASS privileges.


2  Parameters


"file system name"

   Required.

   Specifies the name for the file system or disk. In the case of
   mapping a disk, the "/path" can be only one level from the root.
   This parameter specifies the name by which users will access the
   file system.


logical_file_system

   Required.

   Specifies the file system to make known to the NFS server.

   To map an OpenVMS file system, specify its disk:

   MAP "/disk" disk:

   To map a container file system, specify the disk and the
   directory name:

   TCPIP> MAP
   "/container_name" disk:[vms.directory.name]


2  Examples

   1.TCPIP>  (TCPIP>)MAP "/usr" CANARY$DUA2:

     Maps local disk CANARY$DUA2: to /usr. This disk can be exported
     as /usr to users on remote NFS clients.

   2.TCPIP> MAP "/remote" VERDIN$DUA3:
     TCPIP> MAP "/flyers" VERDIN$DUA3:[UNIX_BIRD_FILES]

     Maps [UNIX_BIRD_FILES], a container file system on disk
     VERDIN$DUA3:, to /flyers. This file system can be exported
     as /flyers to NFS server users. (The first MAP command maps the
     underlying OpenVMS file system.)
