Using the Listnames and Copymovie Commands

The

listnames

command line utility provides a way to list media on a remote

Profile without using Media Manager. Valid arguments are datasets or
volumes, groups or lists, and media. Dataset names are case sensitive. That
means that

INT:

and

int:

would be considered different datasets.

The two arguments for

listnames

are:

-l start_arg

list media based on a starting argument

start_arg

, such as

INT:

If not specified, the utility will list all valid datasets (volumes)

-r remote_machine

lists media of a remote machine, such as

PROFILE1

. If not

specified, the utility searches local machine only

This example lists all the valid datasets (volumes) on the remote machine

PROFILE1

:

listnames -r PROFILE1

This one lists all groups (clip lists) in

INT:

on

PROFILE1:

listnames -r PROFILE1 -l INT:

[or just

//

]

The final examples lists all movies in

INT:/default

on

Profile1

:

listnames -r PROFILE1 -l INT:/default/
