DECNET_REGISTER_COMMANDS.HLB  —  REPAIR
 Repair the synonym and reverse address mapping links for nodes in a
 directory service.

     REPAIR [DECNET] NODE node-name
         [ DIRECTORY_SERVICE dir-service ]
         [ REVERSE_DIRECTORY rev-dir-name ]
         [ SYNONYM_DIRECTORY syn-dir-name ]

 This is used when a node's synonym and reverse address mapping links are
 accidentally deleted or otherwise changed to that they no longer map to
 the correct node name.  To determine whether or not a node's synonym and
 reverse address mapping links are correct, use the SHOW command with the
 FULL keyword.

1  –  NODE 

 This specifies the name of the node whose links are to be repaired.

     NODE node-name

 This argument is not used when repairing the Local Naming Database.  It
 is used only for DECdns.

 The node name must be the fully specified name for the node in the
 directory service.  For example:

     For DECdns:     NODE MyCo:.Sales.MailHub

 Wildcards are allowed in the node name using an asterisk (*).  For
 example:

     For DECdns:     NODE MyCo:.Sales.Mail*

 The wildcard character can come anywhere in the last part of the name.
 Only a single wildcard character is allowed.

 The Phase IV database does not require or use synonym or reverse address
 mapping links.  This command does not apply to this directory service.

2  –  DIRECTORY_SERVICE 

 This specifies the directory service that contains the node whose links
 are to be repaired.

     DIRECTORY_SERVICE dir-service

 The service must be one of:

     DIRECTORY_SERVICE LOCAL
     DIRECTORY_SERVICE DECDNS

 The Phase IV database does not require or use synonym or reverse
 address mapping links.  This command does not apply to this directory
 service.

 If not specified, the default service type is used.  This default can be
 displayed or changed using the SHOW or SET DEFAULT commands.

3  –  REVERSE_DIRECTORY 

 This specifies the base directory or name entry to use when repairing
 the reverse address mapping links (also called back translation links).

     REVERSE_DIRECTORY rev-dir-name

 This argument is not used when repairing the Local Naming Database.  It
 is used only for DECdns.

 The links under this directory are used to map NSAP values to their
 respective node names.  These directories are used only for the DECdns
 directory service.

 If not specified, the default reverse directory is used.  This default
 can be displayed or changed using the SHOW or SET DEFAULT commands.

 For more information, please refer to the NAMES_AND_DIRECTORIES topic.

4  –  SYNONYM_DIRECTORY 

 This specifies the base directory or name entry to use when repairing
 the synonym mapping link.

     SYNONYM_DIRECTORY syn-dir-name

 This argument is not used when repairing the Local Naming Database.  It
 is used only for DECdns.

 The links under this directory are used to map Phase IV synonyms to
 their respective node names.  These directories are used only for the
 DECdns directory service.

 If not specified, the default synonym directory is used.  This default
 can be displayed or changed using the SHOW or SET DEFAULT commands.
