4.10.1
4.10.1.5 Use of EP Utilities Options
Several of the File Transfer transactions make use of one or more command options
associated with the Engineering Personality Utilities. These options are invoked by adding
"-" followed by the option name to the filename. More than one option can be included and
each is separated by a space. For example a filename showing three of the available EP
options would have this form:
NET>vdir>*.* -D -REC -FD
The available EP options are:
• -D Effect of the Data Out Option varies with the type of transaction it is used with.
- Use of the -D option with copy, remove, rename or delete transactions results in
output of a copy of the command and the list of files it causes to be accessed to
a text file specified by the Data Out "ON" request. This text file then can be
read by the host through the Read File request.
Detailed information on the EP Utility Options can be found in the Utility Operations
manual.
The EP Utilities options that can be invoked with specific File Transfer transactions are:
• List Catalog Into a File (see Section 4.10.5)
• Copy File (-D)
• Move File (-D)
• Rename File (-D)
• Delete Files (-D)
