NAME [Toc] [Back]
show profile - Shows the elements of a profile
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
rpccp show profile profile-entry-name
{-d | -a annotation | -i if-id [-v versions] -m member}
[-r [integer]] [-s syntax] [-u]
OPTIONS [Toc] [Back]
-d Selects the default profile element. With the -d option, the
-a, -i, and -m options are ignored.
Note that the -a option works with the -d option, but do not
use them together.
-a Declares a single annotation field (optional). The -a
option selects only elements containing the specified
annotation. The option is case sensitive.
The -a option works alone or in combination with the -i or
-m options or both; only elements containing all the
specified values are displayed.
Note that the shell supports quotation marks around the
annotation field of profile elements, allowing you to
include internal spaces in an annotation; the control
program does not. To specify or refer to annotations from
within the control program, limit each annotation to an
unbroken alphanumeric string; for example, CalendarGroup. To
refer to annotations from the system prompt, do not
incorporate quotation marks into any annotation.
-i Selects a specified interface identifier (optional). Only
elements containing that interface identifier are shown.
The interface identifier value has the following form:
interface-uuid,major-version.minor-version
The UUID is a hexadecimal string and the version numbers are
decimal strings, for example:
-i ec1eeb60-5943-11c9-a309-08002b102989,1.1
Leading zeros in version numbers are ignored.
The -i option works alone or in combination with the -a or
-m options or both; only elements containing all the
specified values are displayed. When the -d option is
specified, the -i option is ignored.

-m Declares a single member name (optional). Only elements
containing that member name are shown.
The -m option works alone or in combination with the -a or
-i options or both; only elements containing all the
specified values are displayed. When the -d option is
specified, the -m option is ignored.
-r Indicates that the show profile operation recurses. If the
member of any element of a profile is also a profile, its
elements are shown. By default, the -r option causes the
show profile operation to recurse until all nested profiles
are expanded; for example, -r shows the elements of the
specified profile and of all nested profiles.
You can limit recursion to one or more levels by specifying
a decimal integer as part of the -r option. For example, -r
1 shows the elements of the specified profile and, for
element members that are profiles, the command also shows
their elements; then recursion stops.
Without the -r option, only the profile elements in the
specified entry are shown.
-s Indicates the name syntax of the entry name (optional). The
only value for this option is the dce name syntax, which is
the default name syntax. Until an alternative name syntax
becomes available, specifying the -s option is unnecessary.
-u Updates the local CDS cache copy of name service data
(optional).
Name service data is cached locally on each machine in a
cell. If an rpccp inquiry can be satisfied by data in the
local CDS cache, this cached data is returned. Locally
cached copies of name service data might not include a
recent CDS update, however. If the required data is not
available in the local CDS cache, rpccp goes to a CDS
server(s) to retrieve the required data. rpccp then updates
the local CDS cache.
Using the -u option bypasses the local cache, allowing rpccp
to go directly to a CDS server for the inquiry. rpccp then
updates the local CDS cache.
-v Indicates how a specified interface version is used
(optional). If it is used without the -i option, the -v
option is ignored. The possible combinations of versions
for the -v option and their actions are described in the
following table.

If the -v option is absent, the command shows compatible

ARGUMENTS [Toc] [Back]
profile-entry-name
Indicates the name of the target profile. For an entry in
the local cell, you can omit the cell name and specify only
the cell-relative name.
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The show profile command shows the elements of a profile in the name
service database. The entry name of the profile is required.
By default, all elements in the profile are shown. You can select a
subset of the elements by specifying the -a, -i, or -m options. The
-r option enables you to show nested profiles.
Privilege Required [Toc] [Back]
You need read permission to the CDS object entry (the target profile
entry). If you use the -r option, you also need read permission to
any nested profiles.
NOTE [Toc] [Back]
This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may
not be provided in future releases of DCE.
EXAMPLES [Toc] [Back]
The following command operates from the system prompt to show the cell
Hewlett-Packard Company - 3 OSF DCE 1.1/HP DCE 1.8 PHSS_26394-96
show profile(1m) Open Software Foundation show profile(1m)
profile /.:/cell-profile in the local cell:
rpccp show profile /.:/cell-profile
The initial shell commands set up an environment variable
MOLLY_O_PROFILE, which represents the user profile
/.:/LandS/anthro/molly_o_profile. The control program commands start
the control program and show the user profile associated with the
MOLLY_O_PROFILE environment variable, as follows:
MOLLY_O_PROFILE=/.:/LandS/anthro/molly_o_profile
export MOLLY_O_PROFILE
rpccp
pccp> show profile MOLLY_O_PROFILE
