NAME

lifrename − rename LIF files

SYNOPSIS

lifrename oldfile newfile

DESCRIPTION

oldfile is a full LIF file specifier (see lif(4) for details) for the file to be renamed (e.g. liffile:A_FILE).  newfile is new name to be given to the file (only the file name portion).  This operation does not include copy or delete.  Old file names must match the name of the file to be renamed, even if that file name is not a legal LIF name. 

Do not mount the special file while using lifrename. 

DIAGNOSTICS

lifrename returns zero if the file name is changed successfully.  Otherwise it prints a diagnostic and returns non-zero. 

EXAMPLES

lifrename liffile:A_FILE B_FILE
lifrename /dev/dsk/1s2:ABC CDE
