The DIRECTORY/APPLICATION_PROTOCOL=FTAM command accesses the FTAM
directory utility, which allows you to display the file attributes
of files on any FTAM system within an OSI network.
By default, the DIRECTORY/APPLICATION_PROTOCOL=FTAM command dis-
plays the file name and remote FTAM application address. To display
information on all of the FTAM file attributes, include the
/FULL qualifier in the DIRECTORY command.
| 1 - Format |
DIRECTORY/APPLICATION_PROTOCOL=FTAM [/qualifier(s)] file-spec
[,...]
The following table describes the variables in this format state-
ment:
__________________________________________________________________
Variable Explanation
__________________________________________________________________
/qualifier An RMS qualifier of the DIRECTORY command. For a
full description of supported qualifiers, see in-
dividual qualifier subtopics; for a summary, see the
"Qualifier" subtopic.
file-spec The file specification for a local or remote file.
__________________________________________________________________
| 2 - Wildcards |
Wildcards provide a method for generalizing a file designation to
encompass a set of local files. Standard DCL wildcard techniques
work for both local (RMS) files and remote files for those remote
FTAM systems that support the NBS-9 document type. If using
wildcard techniques with remote FTAM systems does not work, you
should complete the file designation.
The supported wildcard characters include an asterisk (*) to
represent a text string, a percent sign (%) to represent a single
character, or empty brackets ([ ]) to represent all files in the
local default RMS directory.
| 3 - Qualifiers |
Any DIRECTORY command qualifier that is unlisted here is accepted
as a null qualifier, which produces no effect on the outcome of
the DIRECTORY/APPLICATION_PROTOCOL=FTAM command.
3.1 - /BRIEF
/BRIEF
Produces a brief directory display, which is the default format.
Unless you specify the /SIZE, /OWNER, and/or /DATE qualifiers, the
brief directory display contains only and FTAM application address
and file designation for each specified file.
Default value: A brief display
3.2 - /COLUMNS
/COLUMNS[=n]
Controls the number of columns in a brief directory display. In
practice, a display contains as many of the specified number of
columns as can fit within the display width or the screen width
(whichever is narrowest).
Default value: A four column display
3.3 - /DATE
/DATE[=type]
/NODATE
Displays either the creation or modification date of the speci-
fied file(s) according to the type of date that you specify. The
available types of dates and their effects are:
CREATED Displays the creation date of a file (default)
MODIFIED Displays the last modification date of a file, that is,
when it was last written to
Default value: No date displayed
3.4 - /FULL
/FULL
This qualifier generates a complete listing of supported file
attributes. The "File_attributes" subtopic of the /APPLICATION_
PROTOCOL=FTAM qualifier defines the attributes that are listed by
the full directory display.
Default value: A brief directory display
3.5 - /GRAND_TOTAL
/GRAND_TOTAL
Suppresses both individual file listings and individual directory
totals when multiple directories are involved. The /GRAND_TOTAL
qualifier displays the total numbers of targeted directories and
files.
Default value: Both attributes of individual files and directory
totals displayed
3.6 - /HEADING
/HEADING
/NOHEADING
Controls whether a heading line consisting of an FTAM application
name is displayed separately from file designations. Each FTAM
system specified in a DIRECTORY command generates a separate
directory header.
Default value: Header displayed
3.7 - /OUTPUT
/OUTPUT
/OUTPUT=file
/NOOUTPUT
This qualifier controls where the output of the command is sent.
The /NOOUTPUT qualifier suppresses output. The /OUTPUT=file quali-
fier with a file name and type sends the output to the designated
file. The /OUTPUT=file with a directory but without a file name
or type sends the output to the designated directory and a file
called DIRECTORY.LIS. Using wildcards is prohibited in the /OUTPUT
file specification.
Default value: Output to the default output stream or device
of the current process, whose logical name is
SYS$OUTPUT
(Without a file specification, the /OUTPUT quali-
fier also directs output to SYS$OUTPUT.)
3.8 - /OWNER
/OWNER
/NOOWNER
Controls whether the file owner's UIC is listed.
Default value: File owner undisplayed
3.9 - /PRINTER
/PRINTER
This qualifier places the directory output into the file
DIRECTORY.LIS or the file you specify using the /OUTPUT=file qual-
ifier, automatically queues the file for printing, and deletes the
file.
Default value: No printing
3.10 - /SIZE
/SIZE[=type]
/NOSIZE
Provides the file size in the blocks used and/or allocated for
each specified file. The available /SIZE options and their effects
are:
ALL Displays the file size both in blocks used and blocks
allocated
ALLOCATION Displays the file size in blocks allocated
USED Displays the file size in blocks used (default op-
tion)
See also the /WIDTH=(SIZE=n) qualifier.
Default value: File sizes undisplayed
3.11 - /TOTAL
/TOTAL
Suppresses individual file listings and displays only the summary
information that is described under the /TRAILING qualifier.
Default value: Information about individual file(s) precedes
totals.
3.12 - /TRAILING
/TRAILING
/NOTRAILING
Controls whether summary information (totals) appears in a trail-
ing line at the end of a directory display. Totals include some or
all of the following:
o Number of files listed per directory
o The number of directories (if the command specifies multiple
directories)
o Total number of blocks from each directory (if the command
contains the /SIZE or the /FULL qualifier)
Default value: Totals displayed
3.13 - /WIDTH
/WIDTH[=(options[s])]
Allows you to control the display width allotted to four elements:
the entire display, file name, owner information, and file size.
If you specify only one display-element option (option), you can
omit the parentheses. The display-element options are as follows:
DISPLAY[=n] Controls the total width for a directory display.
You can make the width from 1 through 255 charac-
ters. However, if the total width of the display
exceeds the terminal width, the directory facility
truncates the display on the right side.
FILENAME[=n] Controls the width of the file-name field for a
brief directory display.
OWNER[=n] Controls the width of the owner field for a brief
directory display. If the owner information exceeds
the length of the owner field, the directory facil-
ity truncates the owner information on the right
side.
SIZE[=n] Controls the width of the size field for a brief
directory display.
Default o Display: Terminal width
value:
o File name: 19 characters
o Owner: 20 characters
o Size: 6 characters
| 4 - Examples |
1. $ DIRECTORY/APPLICATION_PROTO=FTAM AMIGUITA::"\DIR\FILE\EXT", -
_$ HAVA::TEST.DAT <RET>
First, this command displays the FTAM application address,
AMIGUITA, and the file name \DIR\FILE\EXT. Next, this com-
mand displays the FTAM application address, HAVA, and the file
name TEST.DAT. The output would resemble the following:
Directory AMIGUITA::
\DIR\FILE\EXT
Total of 1 file
Directory HAVA::
TEST.DAT
Total of 1 file
2. $ DIRECTORY/APPLICATION_PROTOCOL=FTAM /FULL HAVA::TEST.DAT <RET>
This command produces a full directory display for the remote
file HAVA::TEST.DAT. The full directory display for such a
remote file would resemble the following:
Directory HAVA::
TEST.DAT File ID: None
Size: 11/12 Owner: <Unknown>
Created: <None specified> Revised: 30-JAN-1988 9:41
Expires: <None specified> Backup: <No backup done>
File organization: Sequential
File attributes: Allocation: 12, Extend: 0, Global
buffer count: 0
No version limit
Record format: Undefined
Record attributes: None
Journaling enabled: None
File protection: System: , Owner: , Group: , World:
Access Cntrl List: None
Total of 1 file, 11/12 blocks.
