The following Distributed File System (DFS) commands can be called to get and set the DFS globally unique ID (GUID) for a volume:
Each command is wrapped with either the nssRequest or nssReply element and the dfs element.
Every volume that participates in the DFS needs to have a GUID assigned. This is the ID by which it is known to DFS.
When volume replication and volume moves are implemented in future NetWare versions, this DFS GUID is the same on all replicated instances of the volume, no matter where they physically reside.
