✨ GFGROUP ✨

okay bestie, pull up a chair πŸŽ€ this is the Gfarm group maintenance command β€” yes, the gfgroup page from the Gfarm manual, and we're gonna make it make sense.


🌸 NAME 🌸

gfgroup β€” Gfarm group maintenance command πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

gfgroup [-P path] [-l] [group...]

gfgroup [-P path] -c groupname [user...]

gfgroup [-P path] [-a] [-r] -m groupname [user...]

gfgroup [-P path] -d groupname

πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

gfgroup manages Gfarm groups in the Gfarm file system, no cap πŸ’–

If you just run it with no action flag, the default action is to display all registered groups. And if you pass some group names in, it'll display just those specified groups instead. cute, right?

A Gfarm administrator is the one who gets to create, modify, and delete a Gfarm group β€” via the -c, -m, and -d options respectively. So if you're not an admin, bestie, those are not gonna work for you 😭


πŸ’– OPTIONS πŸ’–

  • -P path β€” tells the command a pathname or a Gfarm URL so it can identify which metadata server to go talk to. If you don't specify it, "/" is the default value. periodt.
  • -l β€” displays the group names and the group members. like, the whole roster, slay 🌈
  • -c β€” creates a group in the Gfarm file system. you give it a group name and the initial group members. 🫢 This one can be used by Gfarm administrators only.
  • -m β€” replaces all group members of an existing group with the new list. yes, all of them, full swap πŸ’… This one can be used by Gfarm administrators only.
  • -a β€” adds group members to an existing group. ⚠️ This option is only available with the -m option. This one can be used by Gfarm administrators only.
  • -r β€” removes group members from an existing group. ⚠️ This option is only available with the -m option. This one can be used by Gfarm administrators only.
  • -d β€” deletes a group. gone, deleted, not coming back πŸ™ˆ This one can be used by Gfarm administrators only.
  • -? β€” displays a list of command options. your little cheat sheet, iykyk ⭐
