Changing B_HDS process object group also effects LIB 5xx since it uses the same
group. If LIB 5xx is installed after adjusting the LI attribute, the LIB 5xx default
value will replace the adjusted value.
3.4.1.2. Creating new file sets
Each file set consists of the following attributes:
Table 3.4.1.2.-1 File attributes
Source path This is the directory specification, where source files are located. It can be
application-related or operating system-dependent absolute path.
File mask This attribute is the pattern of the file names to operate on. It is also
possible to specify several patterns separated by semicolon. The DMT
correctly handles file names matching more than one pattern. For
example, if A*.* and *.PHD are specified, APL_991004.PHD will be
processed only once.
Action One of the following actions can be performed by DMT on file sets:
Delete: Deletes all files matching the pattern and criteria.
Move: Moves all files matching the pattern and criteria to another location.
Compress: Places all files matching the pattern and criteria into the archive
and deletes original ones if the operation was successful. The archive file
name can be a maximum of eight characters long, excluding the extension.
The extension can be freely chosen and a maximum of three characters
long. Character selection for both the archive name and the extension
follow the standard DOS file naming convention. Note that for the
compression operation to succeed, the amount of free disk space on the
drive where MicroSCADA is installed needs to be more than twice the size
of the files to be compressed.
Action
Destination
This attribute is only applied for Move and Compress actions. For Move
action, it specifies the directory, where to move the affected files. For the
Compress action, it specifies the destination archive file. The archive name
can be a maximum of eight characters long, excluding the three character
extension, because the destination file name is given as an argument to
AR.EXE.
Criteria One of the following criteria can be checked by the DMT to find out
whether to process the file set:
Time: All files older than the specified time stamp and matching the pattern
are processed.
Size: If the size of any file matching the pattern is greater than the specified
limit, the file is processed.
Criteria value This is the number of criteria units, selected for the file set. This value must
be between 1 and 999.
Criteria unit The following units are applied to the ‘Time' criteria:
‘day'
‘month'
‘year'
The following units are applied to the ‘Size' criteria:
KB Kilobyte, is equivalent to 1 000 bytes.
MB Megabyte, is equivalent to 1 000 000 bytes
GB Gigabyte, is equivalent to 1 000 000 000 bytes
