1104.0. "$CONSOLE STATUS to file, no data." by 42326::COURTNEYM (Shine like silver,Burn like gold) Tue Nov 21 1995 05:33

    On a V1.6 system we find if we DEFINE SYS$OUTPUT to a file
    or set our interactive terminal type to non-VT, eg. "/DEV=Unknown"
    
    $CONSOLE STATUS 		and
    $CONSOLE STATUS /SYSTEM	
    
    do not produce any output, but
    
    $CONSOLE STATUS /ALL	and
    $CONSOLE STATUS /USERS	
    
    work ok in 'hard-copy' mode.
    
    Is this a known problem?  Is it fixed in the 1.6 ECOs? 
    
    Regards,
    Mark Courtney, OpenVMS & LP Support, UK CSC.

    Mark,
      The CONSOLE STATUS utility was never designed to do what you are
    trying to do. Personally I think they should but the point is that it
    really isn't a bug but please submit a request for enhancement for
    the next release. You can send that to the product manager, Rae 
    Kung-Collier at MUZICK::KUNG.
    
    Regs,
      Dan
