NAME

lifls − list contents of a LIF directory

SYNOPSIS

lifls [option] name

DESCRIPTION

lifls lists the contents of a LIF directory on standard output.  The default output format lists file names in multiple columns (similar to ls(1), except unsorted) if standard output is a character special file. If standard output is not a tty device, the output format is one file name per line. name is a path name to an HP-UX file containing a LIF volume and optional file name.  If name is a volume name, the entire volume is listed.  If name is of the form volume:file, only the file is listed.  The following options are available, and only one option should be specified with a given command:

-l List in long format, giving volume name, volume size, directory start, directory size, file type, file size, file start, "implementation" field (in hex), date created, last volume, and volume number. 

-C Force multiple column output format regardless of standard output type. 

-L Return the content of the "last volume flag" in decimal. 

-i Return the content of the "implementation" field in hex. 

-v Return the content of the "volume number" in decimal. 

Do not mount the special file while using lifls. 

DIAGNOSTICS

lifls returns zero if the directory was listed successfully.  Otherwise it prints a diagnostic and returns non-zero. 

EXAMPLES

lifls -l ../TEST/header
lifls -C /dev/rdsk/1s2
