DECmcc V1.2 VMS V5.5 local namespace In the IMPM, Notification Logging --> Customization --> Logging Status and Controls it is possible to command DECmcc to create a new notification logfile. Q. Does this capability exist via the FCL interface? What I want to do is force a new logfile to be created at every midnight via a batch job. Then, I can rename the old logfile to include some sort of YYMMDD convention in the filename. Creating a new logfile every 24 hours is unpredictable because I cannot force it to happen each day at midnight. Thanks- Lee

Lee,
Though I have not done what you suggest, I do recall a customization
window accessed via the Notification Window of the IMPM. This window
had several buttons which allow you to determine log file creations. I
do not recall if you can specify a particular time, but one of the
selections was "New log every 24 hours".
From IMPM, select "Notification ???" from APPLICATIONS menu.
Notification window appears. Select CUSTOMIZE and look around. Sorry
I can't be more specific. I'm not near my system.
-Dan

Re: .1 Yes, I know I can do it via IMPM, I want to be able to do it via the FCL. Thanks, Lee | |||||

Hi, FCL doesn't have built-in capability to do what you want. You could do something like the following. Have a DCL batch job that starts FCL which runs a command procedure that does the following: notify domain x , to file y show mcc 0, at start tomorrow+23:50:00 spawn @restart_job show mcc 0, at start 23:59:00 exit The "shows" take care of having FCL (and the notify command) run until a specific time. The batch job, when it completes, handles renaming the file, etc., or better yet, generating the command procedure that FCL runs in the first place to do "to file" to the correctly named file. The "restart_job" DCL command procedure would basically submit another copy of the batch job. In the above example, there would be about 10 minutes of overlap to be safe. | |||||

I'll give that a try... Thanks- Lee | |||||
