1351.0. "UNIX PCM 1.6 - archive cleanup script" by CSC32::B_GRUBBS () Fri Aug 02 1996 11:57

    
    I can't seem to find the answer to this question.
    
    There is an archive cleanup action script that gets run whenever
    the archive area gets to some 'critical' amount full.
    
    The script it runs is /var/opt/console/actions/console_archive_cleanup.
    
    At the start of this script is says that $1 is the area to be cleaned
    up by this script.
    
    From the console manager database the ACTION IS passing a $1 argument
    but the dispatch window shows that there is no user data to be sent
    to the action.     
    
    So exactly what IS $1 getting passed to the script, since it's not
    spelled out very clearly.  $1 has to be something or the
    console_archive_cleanup script isn't really going to do anything
    at all. 
    
    confused,

    Bert,
       $1 is only needed if the archive location is somehting other than
    the default archive location. I "think" thats
    
    /var/opt/console/archive
    
    on Dunix.
    
    To verify that go into the GUI config editor and use the following menu
    path
    
    Edit->Characteristics->Show/Modify
    
    The default archive location is at the bottom.
    
    Regs,
