36 <P><STRONG>Description</STRONG>
37 <P>The <B>pts setmax</B> command sets the value of one or both counters
38 that track the IDs the Protection Server allocates to new users, machines, or
39 groups: the <TT>max user id</TT> counter for the AFS user IDs (AFS
40 UIDs) assigned to users and machines, and the <TT>max group id</TT> counter
41 for the AFS group IDs (AFS GIDs) assigned to groups.
42 <P>Use the <B>pts listmax</B> command to display the current value of both
44 <P><STRONG>Options</STRONG>
47 </B><DD>Sets the <TT>max group id</TT> counter. Precede the value with a
48 hyphen to indicate that it is negative. When an administrator next uses
49 the <B>pts creategroup</B> command to create a group entry and does not
50 include that command's <B>-id</B> argument, the Protection Server
51 assigns the group an AFS GID one less (more negative) than this value.
53 </B><DD>Sets the <TT>max user id</TT> counter. When an administrator next
54 uses the <B>pts createuser</B> command to create a user or machine entry
55 and does not include that command's <B>-id</B> argument, the
56 Protection Server assigns the group an AFS UID one greater than this
59 </B><DD>Names the cell in which to run the command. For more details, see
60 the introductory <B>pts</B> reference page.
62 </B><DD>Assigns the unprivileged identity <B>anonymous</B> to the
63 issuer. For more details, see the introductory <B>pts</B> reference
66 </B><DD>Enables the command to continue executing as far as possible when errors
67 or other problems occur, rather than halting execution at the first
70 </B><DD>Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
73 <P><STRONG>Examples</STRONG>
74 <P>The following command sets the <TT>max group id</TT> counter to -500 and
75 the <TT>max user id</TT> counter to 1000.
76 <PRE> % <B>pts setmax -group -500 -user 1000</B>
