VMS Help PRODUCT, LIST, Qualifiers  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

1 - /BASE_SYSTEM

       /BASE_SYSTEM=base-system-name

    Selects software products whose base system matches the one
    specified. The base system name identifies both a hardware
    platform and an operating system. The base system name AXPVMS
    denotes an OpenVMS Alpha product, VAXVMS denotes an OpenVMS VAX
    product, and VMS denotes a product applicable to either OpenVMS
    Alpha or VAX.

2 - /FULL

    Displays information about files contained in the kit in 132-
    column format. The /FULL qualifier shows the name of each file,
    gives its size in blocks, and provides a comment field that can
    provide additional information-for example, the file is a product
    description file, a temporary file, or a module file that updates
    a library file. The /NOFULL qualifier displays only the name of
    each file in the kit in 80-column format.

3 - /KIT_ATTRIBUTES

       /KIT_ATTRIBUTES=keyword([,...])

    Selects kits by kit type or kit format, or both. Keywords are:

    FORMAT=      Designates the format of the product kit as follows:
    format-type
                 REFERENCE   Reference format in which product files
                             exist in a directory tree.

                 SEQUENTIAL  Sequential format in which product files
                             are placed in <full-product-name>.PCSI,
                             a container file.

    TYPE=        Specifies the type of product kit as follows:
    kit-type
                 FULL        Layered product (application) software.

                 OPERATING_  Operating system software.
                 SYSTEM

                 MANDATORY_  A required correction to currently
                 UPDATE      installed software. Functionally, this
                             type of kit is the same as a patch kit.

                 PARTIAL     An upgrade to currently installed
                             software. Installation of this kit
                             changes the version of the product.

                 PATCH       A correction to currently installed
                             software. Installation of this kit does
                             not change the version of the product.

                 PLATFORM    An integrated set of software products
                             (also called a product suite).

                 TRANSITION  Used to register information about
                             a product that is installed but not
                             recorded in the product database
                             (for example, a product installed by
                             VMSINSTAL). This kit does not provide
                             product material.

4 - /LOG

       /LOG
       /NOLOG (default)

    Displays messages as the POLYCENTER Software Installation utility
    performs an operation.

5 - /PRODUCER

       /PRODUCER=producer-name

    Selects software products that the specified manufacturer
    produces.

6 - /SELECT

       /SELECT=filename[,...]

    Specifies the name of a file, or a list of files; these files are
    in the specified sequential kit. You can use the asterisk (*) and
    the percent sign (%) wildcard characters for all or part of the
    file name. The file name can contain a directory specification
    that includes an ellipsis (...).

7 - /SOURCE

       /SOURCE=device-name:[directory-name]

    Specifies the disk and directory where the utility searches for
    the software product kit or kits. If /SOURCE is not specified,
    the utility searches in the location that the logical name
    PCSI$SOURCE defines. If PCSI$SOURCE is not defined, and the
    /SOURCE qualifier is not specified, the POLYCENTER Software
    Installation utility searches the current default directory.

8 - /SPAN_VERSIONS

       /SPAN_VERSIONS=keyword([,...])

    Selects software products whose versions match the specified
    version criteria. The keywords are:

    ABOVE=version    Selects versions greater than the version
                     specified

    BELOW=version    Selects versions less than the version specified

    MINIMUM=version  Selects versions greater than or equal to the
                     version specified

    MAXIMUM=version  Selects versions less than or equal to the
                     version specified

    The ABOVE, BELOW, MINIMUM, and MAXIMUM keywords
    can be used alone or in combination. For example,
    /SPAN_VERSIONS=(MINIMUM=V2.1,BELOW=V3.0) selects versions greater
    than or equal to V2.1 and less than (but not including) V3.0.
    Using the MAXIMUM keyword instead of BELOW would select versions
    that include V3.0.

9 - /VERSION

       /VERSION=version-number

    Selects software products that have the specified version.
