424.0. "2.1 ABS SET ENV/ACTION --> no change. Same in GUI." by ATZIS1::PIEBER (chaos has many faces) Fri Apr 11 1997 13:55

    Hi folks,
    
    a nice one from ABS GUI:
    
    Using the GUI to modify an execution environment's 
    
    'original object action', from, say 'RECORD BACKUP DATE' to 'NO ACTION'
    or vice versa GUI reports
    
    'Set of Execution Environment, <EE> Succeed'.
    
    However, the EE is not modified. 
    
    DCL ABS SHOW ENV does not display this attribute and 
    ABS SET ENV/ACTION=... completes with success, but does not modify it 
    either.
    
    rgds,
    Ewald.

424.2Displays in DCL nowCOOKIE::HEISLERChris Heisler, ABS EngineeringMon Apr 14 1997 14:1269
    Ewald,
    
    I'll answer the DCL portion of this note.
    
    I have already changed the display to show the "original object action"
    from DCL.  This was a qar that I have closed.
    
    I can change the action with no problems from DCL:

424.3fixed in future release ?ATZIS1::PIEBERchaos has many facesTue Apr 15 1997 04:4087
Chris,

   This is good news. So, we can consider this fixed in an upcoming release ?

Ewald.

Transcript of my attempts to check this functionality. Here is what I did:

    UID       - 9FC111D3-B580-11D0-9D2F-AA0004002BC2

    Staging Option           - STAGING_ALLOWED
    Retry Count      - 3
    Retry Interval   - 20
    Prologue Command - Reply/Bell/User=(Ewald,abs) "Starting VNOABS_ENV"
    Epilogue Command - Reply/Bell/User=(Ewald,abs) "Ending VNOABS_ENV"

_TYCHE::ABS>> ABS SET ENV VNOABS_ENV/ACTION=NO_CHANGE
_TYCHE::ABS>> ABS SHOW ENV VNOABS_ENV/FULL

Execution Environment
    Name      - VNOABS_ENV
    Version   - 8                                    <-- same as above, ergo
    UID       - 9FC111D3-B580-11D0-9D2F-AA0004002BC2 <-- no change. Verified
       .                                                 using the GUI.
       .    I stripped off the rest, since identical

_TYCHE::ABS>> ABS SET ENV VNOABS_ENV/ACTION=DELETE
_TYCHE::ABS>> ABS SHOW ENV VNOABS_ENV/FULL

Execution Environment
    Name      - VNOABS_ENV
    Version   - 8
    UID       - 9FC111D3-B580-11D0-9D2F-AA0004002BC2

_TYCHE::ABS>> ABS SET ENV VNOABS_ENV/ACTION=RECORD
_TYCHE::ABS>> ABS SHOW ENV VNOABS_ENV/FULL

Execution Environment
    Name      - VNOABS_ENV
    Version   - 8
    UID       - 9FC111D3-B580-11D0-9D2F-AA0004002BC2


   So, there is no way to modify this from DCL here. I then did the same
from the GUI. Initial state was 'RECORD'

GUI: REC --> NO_CHA

Start Set Execution Environment
Set of Execution Environment, VNOABS_ENV Succeeded.
 
GUI: status is unchanged

GUI: REC --> DELETE

Start Set Execution Environment
Set of Execution Environment, VNOABS_ENV Succeeded.
 
GUI: status is unchanged

    Ewald,
    
    	Yes, this will go into the next release. 
    
    	The GUI is going to be replaced in the next version, so the GUI
    	problem mentioned will NOT be fixed in the current GUI.
    
    	Chris
