hi there! i have the dubious task of writing a procedure (for a customer) that will: 1. shutdown ALL-IN-1 2. perform a DCL COPY/CONTIG of the OA$MAIN 3. perform a DCL COPY/CONTIG of SITEOAFORM.FLB 4. precompile the copied version of SITEOAFORM 5. restart ALL-IN-1 there is not much documentation (of the stuff i have anyway) about /NOINIT. are there any other commands or /qualifiers that need to be used with it? i think i have the syntax for the COPY, but i need some hints on the precompiling. do i just enter the menu options (sm-csz-pcf) and the name of the FLB ? thanks - enquiring minds want to know ann

| 56.1 | An Odd request? | SIOG::T_REDMOND | Thoughts of an Idle Mind | Wed Feb 19 1992 23:37 | 12 |
Why would the customer want such a procedure? I can see little to be
gained by such actions, unless the disk or the files is so fragmented
at the moment that performance is being impacted. Precompiling a newly
copied version of SITEOAFORM, for example, will only create a new
version of SITEOAFORM.FLC that may not be contiguous. Anyway, if you
haven't made any changes to SITEOAFORM.FLB there is no real reason why
you should precompile it again.
So what's the customer's reasoning behid the request for this
procedure? It all seems a little odd to me...

| 56.2 | Copy/Contig after the link | MSDSWS::DUNCAN | To boldly go..Where no one dares | Wed Feb 19 1992 23:53 | 10 |
At some point in time they have linked the OA$MAIN image and them copy
it, right? So why not do a $COPY/CONTIG at that point and they can
forget about it until they relink.
I don't like to type so I put all the DCL commands that the Management
Guide tells us to do into a Command file. This way even the customers
can do it. ;-)
