Command Definitions SP-Z
VSTORE
?n@ Verify all files whose second character is n.
n? store all two-character files starting with the character n.
?n Verify all two-character files ending with the character n.
Also, character sets may be specified in the following syntax:
[ct] specifies letter c or t.
[c-t] specifies any letter from range c to t.
[e-g1] specifies any letter range e to g or digit 1.
Examples of using character sets are:
[A-C]@ Verify all files that begin with the letters A, B, or C.
myset[e-g1] Verify all files that begin with the name myset and end in
e, f, or g, or 1.
myset
[d-e1-6] Verify all files that begin with the name myset and end in
d or e, or 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.
You may specify up to a maximum of sixteen characters for each character
set and you may not nest brackets.
A character set specifies a range for only one (1) ASCII character. The
range [a-d]@ gets all files that begin with the letter a through the letter
d. The ranged [ad-de] may cause unpredictable results.
Since the hyphen (-) is a valid character for HFS syntax file names, it is
allowed inside a character set, immediately following a left bracket ([) or
preceding a right bracket (]). When specified between two characters, the
hyphen implies a range of characters.
Specifying Database Files
When specifying TurboIMAGE and ALLBASE/SQL databases to be verified, only the root
file or DBCon file needs to be specified. VSTORE will determine which other files belong to
that database, and will verify all of them. If dataset file(s) are specified without specifying
a root file, then a warning will be printed for each file, and they will not be verified.
Individual database files can be verified without the root file by specifying the
;PARTIALDB option on the VSTORE command line.
MPE and HFS Naming Equivalences
When an MPE name component is a single @ wildcard, the @ will be "folded" to include all
MPE and HFS named files at that level and below. To specifiy only MPE-named files, use
?@ instead.
MPE wildcards are not expanded in filestoexclude. This means that @.@.@-@.@.@ is NOT
an empty fileset. It contains all of the HFS named files on the system.
A fileset may be entered in any of the following formats and may use wildcard characters.
Equivalent MPE and HFS formats are grouped together as follows.
