CreateFolder

CreateFolder

Creates a folder in the domain. When you create a folder, infacmd creates the folder in the domain or folder you specify.
You can use folders to organize objects and to manage security. Folders can contain nodes, services, grids, licenses, and other folders.
The infacmd isp CreateFolder command uses the following syntax: 
CreateFolder

<-DomainName|-dn> domain_name

<-UserName|-un> user_name

<-Password|-pd> password

[<-SecurityDomain|-sdn> security_domain]

[<-Gateway|-hp> gateway_host1:port gateway_host2:port...]

[<-ResilienceTimeout|-re> timeout_period_in_seconds]

<-FolderName|-fn> folder_name

<-FolderPath|-fp> full_folder_path

[<-FolderDescription|-fd> description_of_folder]
The following table describes infacmd isp CreateFolder options and arguments:

user_name
Required if the domain uses Native or LDAP authentication. User name to connect to the domain. You can set the user name with the -un option or the environment variable INFA_DEFAULT_DOMAIN_USER. If you set a user name with both methods, the -un option takes precedence.
