serviceName The name by which the service is known to the local area network. The service name can consists of alphanumeric characters and dollar signs ($). It can be up to and include 255 characters. Wildcards are permitted in this command. device-or-partitionName The device or partition name is the name of the OpenVMS disk device or partition as it is to be known to the local area network. The name of the device or partition that you enter must have been created previously. Explanations of device and partition names follow. o Device names Devices served to the local area network are OpenVMS disk devices; use OpenVMS device names when you specify an InfoServer device name. Note that the device name must either match exactly the name that the SHOW SERVICES command displays or must contain wildcards. (Wildcards are permitted in this command.) A disk specification must end with a colon. o Partition names Partitions are container files that are served to the network. As such, they have OpenVMS file names with a default file type of ".ESS$PARTITION". Partition names, including the device, directory, and file name, can be no more than 242 characters in length. The partition name can be used to further identify the specific service selected. Support for partitions is limited in this version, however. HP strongly recommends that you use LD devices to support partitioned hard drives. See the DCL command LD HELP for more information.
