Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Facility

-b program version

make an RPC broadcast to procedure 0 of the specified

program

and

version

using UDP and report all hosts that respond.

The value for

program

can be a name or a number.

-d program version

delete registration for the RPC service of the specified program and version.
This option can be specified only by a super-group member.

The value for

program

can be a name or a number.

Considerations

If a value for

version

is specified, RPCINFO attempts to call that version of the

specified program. Otherwise, RPCINFO attempts to find all registered version
numbers for the specified program by calling version 0 and attempts to call each
registered version. Version 0 is presumed not to exist. If it exists, RPCINFO tries to
obtain this information by calling an extremely high version number instead.

Because RPCINFO uses the socket library specified by TCP/IP, a PARAM for
TCPIP^HOST^FILE must be specified if the Domain Name Resolver is not used.
For example:

PARAM TCPIP^HOST^FILE $SYSTEM.ZTCPIP.HOSTS

Examples

To show all the RPC services registered on the local system:

RPCINFO -p

To show all the RPC services registered on a system named CYCLONE:

RPCINFO -p cyclone

To show all the systems on the local net running version 2 of the portmapper:

RPCINFO -b portmapper 2

To delete a leftover registration for version 1 of the 1073741824 service:

RPCINFO -d 1073741824 1

The RPC file $SYSTEM.ZRPC.RPC contains user-readable names that can be
used in place of RPC program numbers. Each line contains the name of the RPC
program, the RPC program number, and aliases. See this example partial output:

program vers proto port

100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper

100000 2 udp 111 portmapper
