2.16 VLDB

This section contains the following commands that can be used to manipulate Volume Location Data Base (VLDB):

VLDBs are used by Distributed File System (DFS) to track the physical location of volumes that are stored in NSS. The DFS GUID for each volume is stored in eDirectory. VLDBs can look up that GUID and determine which server(s) contain the volume in question.

Each command is wrapped with either the nssRequest or nssReply element and the vldb element.
