Subj: Re: Fixes needed for dxshutdown testsuite in ptaqa pool
Ok all set. Hopefully we won't go through that again - too much darned mail: -)

| OK, Lynda Rice understands that the use of -modex is a temporary
| measure. I requested that the '+x' permissions be set in both
| PTAQA and the RCS pool. I am repeating the request. Please set
| the '+x' permissions on the files (listed below in the original
| request) in both the PTAQA pool and the RCS pool (wherever it is
| located).
|
| Please send mail when the change is completed.

| Thanks,

|
| I would opt for using the executable mode for scripts in the sandbox 'src'
| tree for now. All of the files that I listed are either ksh or tcl scripts.
|
| For this particular testsuite, nothing needs to be compiled or built. My
| plan was to make the testsuite available via two methods:
|
| 1) Simply create a tarball, using the SysMan directy as the top/start.
| This way, I could point a developer off to the *qa pool and they
| could quickly have access to the testsuite for regression testing.
| Having execute permissions already preset on the scripts is most
| desirable in this case.
|
| 2) Integrate into the X-Test Harness. There are already some kitting
| scripts that will have to be modified to include the new SysMan
| testsuite(s). From what I have seen, this is a simple copy from
| the 'src' tree to a kitting area. I could include the steps to
| add execute permissions here, but this is undesirable.

Subj: Re: Fixes needed for dxshutdown testsuite in ptaqa pool
All...
Whew!!! Who woulda thought it would take a cast of millions 8-) I am very
grateful to all who were involved and helped see this thru. Sorry for being
such a pest...it's been many years since I submitted via ODE and I had way
too many details vying for my attention during this submit. Not that I wasn't
trying to be very careful this time...but believe me I will be extra cautious
the next time so that these kind of whoops don't have to be jumped thru again.
Again, thanks for working with me on this. I really do appreciate it.
Lynda
