PTS_LISTMAX(1) AFS Command Reference PTS_LISTMAX(1)NAMEpts_listmax - Displays the max user id and max group id counters
SYNOPSIS
pts listmax [-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth]
[-force] [-help]
pts listm [-c <cell name>] [-n] [-l] [-f] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The pts listmax command displays the values of the "max user id" and
"max group id" counters, which the Protection Server uses to track the
AFS user IDs (AFS UIDs) it allocates to new users or machines, and the
AFS group IDs (AFS GIDs) it allocates to new groups, respectively. When
an administrator next issues the pts createuser command and does not
include the -id argument, the new user or machine receives an AFS UID
one greater than the "max user id" counter, and when a user issues the
pts creategroup command and does not include the -id argument, the new
group receives an AFS UID one less (more negative) than the "max group
id" counter.
To reset one or both counters, members of the system:administrators
group can issue the pts setmax command.
OPTIONS-cell <cell name>
Names the cell in which to run the command. For more details, see
pts(1).
-force
Enables the command to continue executing as far as possible when
errors or other problems occur, rather than halting execution at
the first error.
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
are ignored.
-localauth
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
/usr/afs/etc/KeyFile file. Do not combine this flag with the -cell
or -noauth options. For more details, see pts(1).
-noauth
Assigns the unprivileged identity anonymous to the issuer. For more
details, see pts(1).
OUTPUT

Max user id is <user_counter> and max group id is <group_counter>.
