    Format

      SHOW SESSIONS  [serviceName] [device-or-partitionName]]

1  –  Parameters

 serviceName

    The name by which the service is known to the local area network.
    The service name can consist of alphanumeric characters, dollar
    signs ($), and wildcards. It can be up to 255 characters in
    length. If omitted, the service name defaults to all services.

    In the InfoServer utility, wildcards, where supported, are those
    used in OpenVMS. The % character matches exactly one character.
    The * character matches zero or more characters.

 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.

       In the InfoServer utility, wildcards, where supported, are
       those used in OpenVMS. The % character matches exactly one
       character. The * character matches zero or more characters.

       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.

       Support for partitions is limited in this version. VSI strongly
       suggests that you use LD devices to support partitioned hard
       drives. See the DCL command LD HELP for more information.

2  –  Qualifiers

2.1    /ALL

    Display all services that match the selection criteria even if
    no clients have connections. If this qualifier is omitted, only
    those services with clients connected will be displayed.

3  –  Example

  $ INFOSERVER SHOW SESSIONS

        HUDSON        [ODS-2]     _MOVERS$LDA1: [ 1 Connection]
        1 service found.

  $ INFOSERVER SHOW SESSIONS/ALL

        HUDSON        [ODS-2]     _MOVERS$LDA1: [ 1 Connection]

        BAFFIN        [ODS-2]     _MOVERS$LDA1:

        FUNDY         [ODS-2]     _MOVERS$LDA1:

        3 services found.

      The command in the first example displays only the session
      that has a client connection, HUDSON. The command in the
      second example displays all sessions, even those with no client
      connections.
