[KMSKIT.SYSMGR.CMDFIL] This directory contains command files we have found to be of general use for system management. Typically all command files reside on SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSMGR.CMDFIL]. Many command files assume that TESTFILE is defined as a foreign command, ie TESTFILE==@SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSMGR.CMDFIL]TESTFILE.COM. Help files are supplied for command files as appropriate. 1. CMD. Starts up command files on SYS$SYSDEVICE:[SYSUTL] and passes them command lines. 2. ERRORDSP. Quick and dirty to display the error message associated with a VMS error number. If defined as a foreign command, type ERRORDSP , or if using the CMD procedure, CMD ERRORDSP to see why VMS is rejecting your efforts. 3. JNLBACKUP. Provides an easy way for users to back up their files. Creates a journal file of files backed up and a directory log file of all kinds of things (tape name, backup set name, tape number, backup date range, errors encountered on tape, etc). Insures that all backup sets have unique names. Nifty. 4. SPR. Automatic SPR generator for VMS and RSX. This is neat. SPR administration will take SPRs prepared this way if you staple them to a blank SPR form. Maybe someone could modify it to run without operator intervention. Start it up at night, come in in the morning and find a neatly typed list of SPRs describing all current system problems known and unknown. However, until then, you do have to type in the problem but editors are so much more fun than typing a multi-part form!! 5. TESTFILE. Emulates the .TESTFILE on RSX. Faster (by far) than using an image to check for the existance of a file. 6. UTL. Automatically starts up tasks on [SYSUTL] and passes them command lines. Saves having a zillion foreign commands. 7. XQT. Simulate the RSX .XQT command.
