           show mapping
                   Shows the elements of the local endpoint map.

2  –  DESCRIPTION

           The RPC control program (rpccp) provides a set of commands
           for managing the endpoint map.

           You can use control program commands from within the control
           program or from the system prompt (represented here as a $).

             o  From inside the control program:

                You can start and enter the control program using the
                rpccp command alone, without any argument. The control
                program then displays the control program prompt
                (rpccp>), as follows:

                $ rpccp
                rpccp>

                You can then enter any control program command, for
                example:

                rpccp> show mapping

                You leave the control program and return to the system
                prompt using the exit or quit command.

                If you enter invalid input, the control program
                displays the valid commands.

             o  From the system prompt:

                Interactively or in a command procedure, enter the
                rpccp command with an internal command of the control
                program as the first argument.

2.1  –  Arguments and Options

           Except for the exit and quit commands, rpccp commands have
           one or more options.  Each option is identified by a hyphen
           (-) followed by a letter; for example, -s. Some options
           require arguments.

4  –  remove_mapping

    NAME
         remove mapping - Removes specified elements from either the
         local or a remote endpoint map

    SYNOPSIS
         rpccp remove mapping   [ host-address ]
         -b string-binding   -i if-id   [ -v versions ]
         [ -o object-uuid ]

4.1  –  OPTIONS

         -b Declares a string binding (required).  You must also
            specify an interface identifier (using the -i option).
            Each command accepts up to 32 -b options.

            The value has the form of an RPC string binding, without
            an object UUID, for example:

            -b ncadg_ip_udp:63.0.2.17[5347]

            Note that depending on your system, string binding
            delimiters such as brackets ([ ]) may need to be preceded
            by an escape symbol (\) or placed within quotation marks
            (' ' or " "). Requirements vary from system to system,
            and you must conform to the usage rules of a system.

         -i Declares an interface identifier (required).  Only one
            interface can be removed in a single operation.  The
            interface identifier has the following form:

            interface-uuid,major-version.minor-version

4.2  –  ARGUMENTS

         host-address
                 The host-address argument is a string binding that
                 indicates where to find the target endpoint map.
                 When accessing the local endpoint map, you can
                 specify what protocol sequence to use (optional);
                 ncadg_ip_udp:

                 When accessing a remote endpoint map, you must
                 specify both a protocol sequence and a network
                 address for the remote system (required); for
                 ncadg_ip_udp:16.20.16.44

                 An endpoint is unnecessary in local or remote host
                 addresses, and the remove mapping command ignores
                 any endpoint specified as part of a host address.

4.3  –  DESCRIPTION

         The remove mapping command removes one or more elements from
         an endpoint map.  The target endpoint map can be either the
         local endpoint map or the endpoint map of a specified remote
         host.  Each map element corresponds to an object UUID,
         interface identifier, annotation (optional), and binding
         information. The binding information contains an RPC
         protocol sequence, a network address, and an endpoint within
         brackets (rpc-prot-seq:network-addr[endpoint]).

         If entered without a remote host address as an argument, the
         command operates on the local endpoint map.  This command
         requires one interface identifier (the -i option); at least
         one string binding (the -b option); and, optionally, one or
         more object UUIDs (the -o option). Each instance of the
         command accepts from 1 to 32 -b options and from 0 to 32 -o
         options. The options work together to delimit the elements
         to be removed from the target endpoint map. The command
         removes any map element that contains the specified
         interface identifier, a specified string binding, and a
         specified object UUID (if any).

4.4  –  EXAMPLES

         The following command operates from the system prompt to
         remove a map element from the local endpoint map.  The
         command removes only the map element that contains the
         specified interface identifier, server address (specified as
         a string binding), and object UUID.

         $ rpccp remove mapping  \
         > -b ncadg_ip_udp:16.20.16.64[3424]  \
         > -i EC1EEB60-5943-11C9-A309-08002B102989,1.1  \
         > -o 30DBEEA0-FB6C-11C9-8EEA-08002B0F4528
         $

         The following commands start the control program and remove
         an element from a remote endpoint map.  The remove mapping
         command operates on the endpoint map of the remote host
         specified by the host address (ncadg_ip_udp:16.20.16.44) and
         removes the map element that contains the specified
         interface identifier, server address (specified as a string
         binding), and object UUID:

         $ rpccp
         rpccp> remove mapping  \
         > -b ncadg_ip_udp:16.20.16.64[3424]  \
         > -i EC1EEB60-5943-11C9-A309-08002B102989,1.1  \
         > -o 30DBEEA0-FB6C-11C9-8EEA-08002B0F4528  \
         > ncadg_ip_udp:16.20.16.44
         rpccp>

5  –  show_mapping

    NAME
         show mapping - Shows the elements of either the local or
         remote endpoint map

    SYNOPSIS
         rpccp show mapping   [ host-address ]
         [ -i if-id   [ -v versions ]]

5.1  –  OPTIONS

         -i Defines an interface identifier to be shown (optional).
            Only one interface can be shown in a single operation.
            If specified, only elements containing this interface
            identifier are shown.  The -i option can be qualified by
            the -v option. The 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.

         -o Defines an object to be shown (optional).  Each show
            mapping command accepts up to 32 -o options.

            The UUID is a hexadecimal string, for example:

            -o 3C6B8F60-5945-11C9-A236-08002B102989

         -v Indicates how a specified interface version is used
            (optional).  If used without the -i option, the -v option
            is ignored.  The possible combinations of versions for
            the -v option and their actions are as follows:

            ________________________________________________
            Versions     Action
            ________________________________________________
            all          The interface version is ignored.

            exact        Both the major and minor versions
                         must match the specified versions.

            compatible   The major version must match the
                         specified version, and the minor
                         version must be greater than or
                         equal to the specified version.

            major_only   The major version must match the
                         specified version; the minor
                         version is ignored.

            upto         The major and minor versions must
                         be less than or equal to those
                         specified.
            ________________________________________________

            If the -v option is absent, the command shows compatible
            version numbers.

5.2  –  ARGUMENTS

         host-address
                 The host-address argument is a string binding that
                 indicates where to find the target endpoint map.
                 When accessing the local endpoint map, you can
                 specify what protocol sequence to use (optional);
                 ncadg_ip_udp:

                 When accessing a remote endpoint map, you must
                 specify both a protocol sequence and a network
                 address for the remote system (required); for
                 ncadg_ip_udp:16.20.16.44

                 An endpoint is unnecessary in local or remote host
                 addresses, and the remove mapping command ignores
                 any endpoint specified as part of a host address.

5.3  –  DESCRIPTION

         The show mapping command shows elements of an endpoint map.
         Each element corresponds to an object UUID, interface
         identifier, annotation, and binding information. The binding
         information contains an RPC protocol sequence, a network
         address, and an endpoint within square brackets
         (rpc-prot-seq:network-addr[endpoint]).

         The endpoint map can be either the local endpoint map or the
         endpoint map of a specified remote host. If entered without
         a remote host address, the command accesses the local
         endpoint map. For the local endpoint map, a show mapping
         command without any options displays all the map elements.
         For a remote endpoint map, map elements are accessible only
         for protocol sequences that are supported on both your
         system and the remote system.

         Note:  To ensure that you can remotely display all
                map elements from every remote endpoint map,
                run the RPC control program on a system that
                supports all of the protocol sequences
                available in your network environment.

         The options list a selected subset of map elements. The - i
         option selects a specific interface, and the -v option
         qualifies the -i option. The -o object selects a specific
         object; you can use from 0 to 32 -o options per command. The
         options work together to specify the subset of elements for
         the target protocol sequence(s).

5.4  –  EXAMPLES

         The following commands start the control program and show
         the map elements in the local endpoint map that contain the
         specified interface identifier:

         $ rpccp
         rpccp> show mapping -i EC1EEB60-5943-11C9-A309-08002B102989,1.1

         The following rpccp show mapping command operates from the
         system prompt.  The command accesses the endpoint map of the
         remote host specified by the host address
         (ncadg_ip_udp:16.20.16.44) and displays the one map element
         that contains both the specified interface identifier and
         the specified object UUID:

         $ rpccp show mapping  \
         > -i EC1EEB60-5943-11C9-A309-08002B102989,1.1  \
         > -o 30DBEEA0-FB6C-11C9-8EEA-08002B0F4528  \
         > ncadg_ip_udp:16.20.16.44
