FUP Overview

Interactively

Entering FUP commands within FUP (interactively) saves time if you are going to enter
a series of commands. Type the term FUP (without any commands or options) at the
TACL prompt, and press the RETURN key to start an interactive FUP process:
1> FUP
File Utility Program - T6553D45 - (13OCT2000)
Copyright Tandem Computers Incorporated 1981, 1983, 1985-2000
-
The FUP process is ready to receive commands interactively when its sign-on banner
and prompt (a hyphen) are first displayed. You can then type a FUP command at each
subsequent FUP prompt:
-INFO *
After FUP executes the command, the FUP prompt reappears. Type another FUP
command at the subsequent prompt, or use the EXIT command to return control of the
terminal from FUP to TACL:
-EXIT

From a Command File

Starting a FUP process with a command file is useful if you frequently run the same
series of FUP commands. You can also process FUP commands within an interactive
FUP session using the OBEY command.

Command Files

To create a command file that contains FUP commands, use a text editor (such as
TEDIT). This example shows a command file (ALLSUBS):
-- FUP commands for obtaining a list of all
-- subvolumes in $DISK1, $DISK2, and $DISK3
--
-- Last modified 5/17/01
--
SUBVOLS $DISK1
SUBVOLS $DISK2
SUBVOLS $DISK3
The example command file (ALLSUBS) uses a FUP command (SUBVOLS) to list the
subvolumes in three different disk volumes ($DISK1, $DISK2, and $DISK3). It also
includes comment lines to help identify the file and explain the operations that are
performed.
Note. You can enter two dashes (--) or a less-than symbol (<) to indicate a comment. FUP
ignores any text that follows these punctuation marks until the end of the command line.
