Re: ACCESS to IFS

So:

Stream file objects are not stored in contexts.

Stream file objects are located by the machine via the "directory contents
data space index".

-----------------------------

Is the directory contents data space index stored in a context ?

Without the context, does the machine have a way of materializing a list of
all the objects on the system, all the stream file objects on the system ?

If a "directory contents data space index" becomes damaged, does all its
member stream file objects become orphans ?   ( compared to when a context
object is damaged, its member objects still point back to the damaged
context )


Thank you,

Steve Richter
