9.4.1 PROSTRCT ADD and Pathnames
When you use PROSTRCT ADD to add additional storage areas or extents to a relative path
database, the relative path database is converted to an absolute path database. For example, if
you add an additional application data storage area named
Misc to the relative path database
example1, PROSTRCT ADD converts the relative path database to an absolute path database.
Use PROSTRCT LIST to update the ST file with the added extents. For example:
In the following sample output of the PROSTRCT LIST utility, note the absolute pathname
(
/usr1/example1.db) of the modified database:
prostrct add example1 add.st
prostrct list example1
