Description
List the users.
Required parameters
- USER=pattern
- User name, optionally with "*" wildcards.
Optional parameters
- COMPUTED=NO
- Disables the generation of the
GROUPS attribute in the output, which lists groups the user belongs to. This attribute must be computed when processing the command,
and can take a long time to generate if you are listing many users or have many groups.
- CNSSTNT=NO
- This parameter name is an abbreviation of the word "consistent". It disables locking the ESF group list while computing group
membership. This introduces a small chance of returning inconsistent results for the user's group list, but it improves performance
and enables multiple LISTUSER commands to run in parallel. This option has no effect if the parameter COMPUTED=NO is specified,
this is because the group membership is omitted.
Inconsistent results will only occur if LISTUSER overlaps with the initial Verify operation for the same user, with an ESF
Update operation which changes the user's group membership, or with an ESF Admin ALTGROUP, DELGROUP, or ALTUSER operation
which happens to affect the group entry LISTUSER is currently examining. The most likely result is the appearance of an empty
group name in the returned results.
Example
esfadmin listuser user="A*"
Lists all users with names beginning with "A".
