Attributes (Folder)

If you are viewing attributes on a volume, the attributes apply to the root folder of the volume.

Delete Inhibit
Prevents the folder from being deleted, even if a user has the Erase right.

Hidden
Hides the folder from the DOS DIR command and prevents it from being deleted or copied. The NetWare* DIR command will list the folder if you have the File Scan right.

Purge
Causes NetWare to purge the folder when it is deleted.

Rename Inhibit
Prevents the folder from being renamed, even if a user has the Modify right.

System
Reserves the folder for operating system use and prevents it from being deleted, renamed, or copied.

Don't Migrate
Prevents the files in the folder and its subfolders from being migrated to a secondary storage device (such as a tape drive or optical disk) even when the threshold set by the server is reached.

Immediate Compress
Causes NetWare to compress the files in the folder and its subfolders as soon as possible, without waiting for a specific event to occur (such as a time delay). Individual files marked with the Don't Compress attribute are unaffected.

Don't Compress
Prevents the files in the folder and its subfolders from being compressed even when the threshold set by the server is reached. Individual files marked with the Immediate Compress attribute are unaffected.
