  17 =head1 DESCRIPTION
  18
  19 The B<fs listcells> command formats and displays the list of the database
  20 server machines that the Cache Manager stores in kernel memory for its
  21 home cell and foreign cells.
  22
  23 At each reboot of the client machine, the Cache Manager copies the
  24 contents of F</usr/vice/etc/CellServDB> into kernel memory. To modify the
  25 list between reboots, use the B<fs newcell> command.
  26
  27 =head1 OPTIONS
  28
  29 =over 4
  30
  31 =item B<-numeric>
  32
  33 Displays each database server machine's IP address rather than hostname.
  34
  35 =item B<-help>
  36
  37 Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are
  38 ignored.

  42 =head1 OUTPUT
  43
  44 The output includes a line for each cell included in the Cache Manager's
  45 kernel memory list, in the following format:
  46
  47    Cell <cell> on hosts <database server machines>
  48
  49 The Cache Manager stores IP addresses, but by default has them translated
  50 to hostnames before reporting them, by passing them to the cell's name
  51 service (such as the Domain Name Service or a local host table). The name
  52 service sometimes returns hostnames in uppercase letters, or an IP address
  53 if it cannot resolve a name.
  54
  55 Using the B<-numeric> flag bypasses the translation to hostnames, which
  56 can result in significantly faster production of output. The output
  57 includes IP addresses only.
  58
  59 =head1 EXAMPLES
  60
  61 The following example shows output for several cells as illustrations of
  62 the different formats for machine names:
  63
  64    % fs listcells
  65    Cell example.com on hosts fs1.example.com fs2.example.com fs3.example.com
  66    Cell example.org on hosts DB1.FS.EXAMPLE.ORG
  67       DB2.FS.EXAMPLE.ORG DB3.FS.EXAMPLE.ORG
  68    Cell example.net on hosts 138.255.0.2 sv3.example.net
