Using FUP for Basic File Management
Changing System and Volume Defaults
Each FUP process maintains default values for volume and subvolume, as well as a
default system in nodes that are part of a network. The default system, volume, and
subvolumes for FUP are separate from the default values kept by the TACL program.
FUP expands file names by substituting the current default value for any part of a file
name that you omit. Thus, when you enter a file name as part of a FUP command, you
need to include only those parts of the name that are different from the current default
values kept by FUP. For example, if you supply only a volume name followed by a file
identifier, FUP fills in the subvolume name.
Note. You should avoid using subvolume defaulting, because this feature might not be
supported in future D-series releases of FUP.
Initially, the default values for a FUP process are the same as the current defaults in
effect for your TACL process when you start the FUP process. To change the default
values kept by FUP, enter FUP SYSTEM and VOLUME commands.
For example, to change the current default system, enter SYSTEM followed by the
name of the system:
-SYSTEM \VENICE
To return to the initial default system, enter SYSTEM without a system name:
-SYSTEM
You can change the default volume, the default subvolume, or both with the FUP
VOLUME command. To change only the default volume, enter VOLUME followed by
the name of the new default volume:
-VOLUME $DISK99
To change the default subvolume, enter VOLUME followed by the name of the new
default subvolume:
-VOLUME MAYFLY
To change both the default volume and subvolume at once, enter VOLUME followed by
the volume name, a period, and the subvolume name. For example, the changes made by
the commands in the last two examples can be made at one time by entering:
-VOLUME $DISK99.MAYFLY
To restore the initial default system, volume, and subvolume values, enter VOLUME
alone:
-VOLUME
