If you work with a dynamic view, you can either
start the view or set the view.
Starting a view
Starting a view establishes
view-extended naming access without creating a process that is set to the
view.
You start a view for either of the following reasons:
- To establish view-extended access to a VOB. Because mkview and mktag start
a view on the local host only, remote users who want to use view-extended
paths must use startview.
- To reestablish view-extended access after your system was
stopped and restarted. Both local and remote users can use startview to
reestablish view-extended access.
Setting a view
Setting a view with
the setview command establishes view-extended naming access
and creates a new process that is set to the view.
