1210.0. "NOVA::DB$... playing peek-a-boo with me!" by EPAVAX::EPAPC1::CARLOTTI (Rick Carlotti, DTN 440-7229) Thu Dec 03 1992 14:49

What gives?

I do a directory of NOVA::DB$FACTSHEET:*.*;0 and see the files I need to 
copy.  Then I issue a SPOOL COPY command and the job errors our with: 

%FTSV-E-OPENIN, error opening NOVA::DB$FACTSHEET:ORA*.*;0 as input
-RMS-F-DEV, error in device name or inappropriate device type for 
operation

When I then do another DIR command, I can't see the files anymore.  It's 
like you get one peek at them and then you can't see them anymore!  Is 
this some new Sales prevention feature of VMS?

I need this info ASAP, so if anyone our there can help, I'd appreciate it!

1210.1Give WILBRY:: a try...NOVA::DAVISONJay Davison, Database SystemsThu Dec 03 1992 15:352
    Try using WILBRY instead of NOVA.  Lots of this stuff moved off
    of NOVA a while ago.
