Customization instructions
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Connect to the lowest directory in the path that is already
|
||
|
|
customized. One way to check whether a directory is customized is to
|
||
|
|
use the vwp command while connected to the directory. If one of the
|
||
|
|
components in the physical name for the directory includes the the
|
||
|
|
name of your virtual system it is probably a customized view. Let
|
||
|
|
'thisdir' be the name of the current directory and 'subdir' the name
|
||
|
|
of the subdirectory that is to be customized. Do a vls -u to find out
|
||
|
|
the name of the union link for the uncustomized version of the current
|
||
|
|
directory. The subdirectory to be customized should not show up in
|
||
|
|
this list*. For the purpose of this example, pretend that the union
|
||
|
|
linked directory is named 'usprot'. Execute the following commands:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
vmkdir subdir
|
||
|
|
vcd -u usprot
|
||
|
|
vln -u subdir ../thisdir/subdir/usprot
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
That should do it. Do a vcd ../thisdir/subdir followed by a vls -u
|
||
|
|
and a vls to make sure things worked. You can now use vln to add
|
||
|
|
links to your customized copy of the current directory. Use vln's
|
||
|
|
"-c" (customize) option to make sure that vln does not think that the
|
||
|
|
uncustomized target of the link is the directory in which the new link
|
||
|
|
is to be added.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are trying to customize a directory deep in the hierarchy, each
|
||
|
|
directory in the path from the root must be customized though it is
|
||
|
|
expected that those in the higher levels of the hierarchy might have
|
||
|
|
already been taken care of (when you customized other directories
|
||
|
|
sharing a common prefix).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* : The subdirectory to be customized would be in the union
|
||
|
|
linked directory, if you see the subdirectory in the current directory
|
||
|
|
when you do the vls -u, then a different procedure must be followed.
