1.9 The Vgroup Command-Line Utilities

The vshow and vmake utilities are Unix command line utilities for working with vgroups and vdatas. We give a very brief description of these here. For more information, refer to Chapter 13, titled HDF Command-Line Utilities.

1.9.1 Vshow

The vshow utility lists information about vgroups and vdatas in HDF files. It lists and displays information on all the vgroups in the file in the order stored, followed by the vdatas.

1.9.2 Vmake

The vmake utility is a general utility for generating vsets in an HDF file. Vmake is used to create new vgroups, store data into new vdatas and create links among vgroups and vdatas.
