In the following graphics, the shaded area shows the objects identified by the combination of the Object path name and Subtree elements of the Object parameter for an IFS command. Circled objects represent the final list of objects selected for processing.
Figure 22 illustrates a path name value of /corporate/accounting, a subtree specification of *ALL, a pattern value of *ALL, and an object type of *ALL. The candidate objects selected include /corporate/accounting and all descendants.
Figure 22.Directory of /corporate/accounting/
The below figure shows a path name of /corporate/accounting/*, a subtree specification of *NONE, a pattern value of *ALL, and an object type of *ALL. In this case, no additional filtering is performed on the objects identified by the path and subtree. The candidate objects selected consist of the specified objects only.
Figure 23.Subtree *NONE for /corporate/accounting/*
The below figure displays a path name of /corporate/accounting/*, a subtree specification of *ALL, a pattern value of *ALL, and an object type of *ALL. All descendants of /corporate/accounting/* are selected.
Figure 24. Subtree *ALL for /corporate/accounting/*
The below figure is a subset of Figure 24. Figure 25 shows a path name of /corporate/accounting, a subtree specification of *NONE, a pattern value of *ALL, and an object type of *ALL, where only the specified directory is selected.
