390.0. "ARCHIVE multiple systems" by SUPER7::HUGHESA (Swimming against the tide @#%*) Mon Sep 05 1994 11:38

    
    	I attempted over the weekend to perform a CONSOLE ARCHIVE on two
    	systems using the command;
    
    	CONSOLE ARCHIVE/BEFORE=<date> <system1>,<system2>
    
    	Console Mnaager achived the first system and then simply exited to
    	DCL, ignoring the second system.
    
    	This PCM v1.5 on OpenVMS v6.1 (on VAX).

Andy,

  Where did you get the impression that you could archive a set
  of systems?

  The documentation show that you can use a single system name
  or either of the keywords ALL and CONSOLEMANAGER

Cheers,
Phil
390.2The documentation and help ....SUPER7::HUGHESASwimming against the tide @#%*Tue Sep 06 1994 09:5225
 See Polycenter Console Manager - User Guide 

	Sections 4.5.1 
		 
 Extract from help library ....

      Archiving can be done in the following ways:

       o  Archive the oldest n hours and keep the rest

       o  Retain the latest n hours and archive the rest

       o  Specify an absolute time for cut off

       If the keyword ALL is used as a system name, all files are
       archived.

       To archive multiple systems, specify the system names on the
       command line separated by a comma (",").

    Additional information available:

    /BEFORE    /CONFIRM   /DIRECTORY /HOURS     /KEEP

CONSOLE ARCHIVE Subtopic?

  Ok,Ok, I take your point, I missed that paragraph in the
  documentation, however, it should not be there, the code
  in no way supports the use of multiple system names!

  So, this is a bug in the documentation.

Cheers,
Phil

    Phil,
    
       The C3 behaves like the documentation, allowing multiple 
    systems to be archived as well. Seems like it's the correct thing to
    do.
    
    Cheers,

390.5Doc/Help Error in ARCHIVESUPER7::HUGHESASwimming against the tide @#%*Wed Sep 07 1994 10:1713
    
    Another one for the doc writer ....
    
    	The user guide and help library state that the syntax for archiving
    	all systems is ....
    
    	CONSOLE ARCHIVE/ALL/....
    
    	Well it isn't. The correct syntax is ....
    
    	CONSOLE ARCHIVE ALL/.....
