11 Arguments:
12 path
13    is the name of the master directory to register, or if -all is used,
14    the starting node of the hierarchy tree to be scanned for master
15    directories.  This argument can only be omitted if the -all control
16    argument is specified, in which case it defaults to the root.
17 
18 
19 Control arguments:
20 -all
21    specified that the path given is the starting node to scan for
22    master directories to register.  All directories including the
23    starting node are checked and registered if they are master
24    directories.
25 -brief, -bf
26    specifies that the names of master directories registered by this
27    command are not to be printed.  (Applies only when -all is used.)

34 Notes:  This command is only required as part of an error recovery
35 procedure in repairing a master directory control segment.  Normally,
36 all master directories are registered in the MDCS when they are
37 created.
38 
39 All master directories registered by this command are charged to the
40 quota account Initializer.SysDaemon, which is automatically created if
41 it does not exist.
