2.3 SEA Known Issues
Rev. 9/8/06
Web-Based Enterprise Services Release Notes 2–11
Filenames containing wildcards characters (*) are not expanded and result in command
parsing errors. OpenVMS does not expand wildcards before passing arguments to a
program, and as a result OpenVMS cannot find any files that match the given argument.
For example, the following command does not work and results in the given error:
$ wsea n analyze svctools_common:[common.ca.examples]*.zpd
Error During Command Parsing: Cannot find the file/dir:
svctools_common:[common.ca.examples]*.zpd.
To input all files in a directory, enter the directory path alone, without wildcard
characters. Most commands automatically search for and process all files that have the
following recognized error log filename extensions (*.errlog, *.zpd, *.sys, *.evt). To
specify multiple input files, put them in a comma-separated list after the input parameter.
There must be a space after each comma.
• Scrolling Output in Terminal Display
When you enter a CLI command in a command window, the resulting output scrolls
continuously in the terminal display. To set a screen pause after each output page, modify
the command as shown in the following example:
$ PIPE command | TYPE/PAGE=SAVE SYS$INPUT
Where command is the CLI command that you want to pause.
You need to enter the command for all CLI outputs you want to pause. To simplify the
process, you can save this stream to a variable by entering the following line in the login
script:
$ more:==TYPE/PAGE=SAVE SYS$INPUT
Once this variable is established in the login script or at the command line, you can use
the following command to set a screen pause:
$ PIPE command | more

Note
The "Undo Changes" button on the Managed Entity screen may not undo the changes
made. Another way to undo changes is to navigate to a different page of the SEA Web
interface without clicking the "Apply Changes" button.
