Tutorial: advanced operations

This section provides a set of procedures that demonstrate how to add FTP
users on the DMS-100 switch.

Procedure 7

Showing the status of server sessions

Use this procedure to determine why an FTP session cannot be established.

Step

Action

1

Start the FTP tool without connecting to a host by typing

ftp> ftp

and pressing the Enter key.

2

Obtain information on current and reserved FTP sessions by typing

ftp> showsvusers

and pressing the Enter key.

Example of a MAP response:

1. Sessions reserved -> 1 Sessions active -> 1
USERNAME: admin DEFAULTDIR:/SFDEV ACTIVE SESSIONS:1
ABSOLUTEPATHNAME:yes COMMAND TIMEOUT: forever

The sample MAP response indicates that there is one server session
reserved with a userID of admin and this session is presently active (that is,
someone has established an FTP session).

3

You have completed this procedure.

Procedure 8

Reserving a server session and adding a server userID

You can reserve server sessions on a DMS node and attach some user
information to these server sessions, such as a different default directory. The
number of sessions that can be reserved depends on the number of FTP
connections datafilled for that node in table IPHOST. This number equals the
sum of all server sessions allowed for this node.

Find out how many server sessions the node can support. Use procedure 7 to
find out how many sessions have been reserved. The remaining sessions can
be reserved for use by a designated user.
