Question about cmds

Jack Trachtman — Thu, 01 Apr 2004 11:21:32 GMT

This discussion has been very interesting in its explanation of the "innards" of the XFC.

The "SHOW MEMORY/FILE=xxx" doesn't seem to exist on my VMS V7.3-2 system, though. What I
get is the output about Paging and Swap files of the "SHOW MEM/FILES" cmd.

How can I get this cmd to work as you've shown it? Thanks

I think it is:
$ SHOW MEMORY /CACHE=FILE=filespec

Hello,

plus the filename must contain a device spec, i.e.

show mem/cach=file=temp.txt will not work,

while

show mem/cach=file=sys$disk:[]temp.txt

does.
