Any documentation for CLUE SCSI

[Cass Witkowski]

Is there any documentation for the CLUE SCSI command? In another thread someone mentioned the CLUE SCSI/SUMMARY command. On my V7.3-2 system I could do the command but under CLUE the SCSI command was not mentioned.

Also on the output of the CLUE SCSI/SUMMARY command the width of the type field should be expanded. The MSA1000 is showing up as MSA100.

Thanks

Kris,

Thanks for the info.

So, on your own system you can do:

$ help/library=clue$help clue

Uwe,

not on our systems!
%RMS-E_FNF, file not found CLUE$HELP.HLB.
and there really is NO file call CLUE$HELP
anywhere online.

VMS 7.3-2, patches up to early nov 2004

Did we miss something, do you need an extra install, anything else?

Proost.

Have one on me.

Wow, that's a surprise! You are right!

But I tried in on an OpenVMS Alpha V6.2-1H3 system and it works there.

Jan,

CLUE HELP has been integrated into SDA HELP. For some reason, the help text for CLUE SCSI has been lost/omitted/forgotten...

Uwe,

our system EVOLVED from 6.1-1H? via 6.2-1H? etc to the current 7.3-2.

If it ever was 6.2-1H, does this mean the file was REMOVED, or was it added later to 6.2, and NOT to 7.x?

Somehow it does not look consistent to me...

Proost.

Have one on me.

Jan,
it is my understanding that an operating system upgrade will delete the old version, first. See attachment.

CLUE has been around as an integral part of OpenVMS Alpha since V6.1. It has been (and still is) implemented as a SDA extension (SYS$LIBRARY:CLUE$SDA.EXE).

It's help file has been integrated into SDA HELP some time ago (around V7.3 time frame). The help text for CLUE SCSI has probably been lost at that time. Whether by accident or not - only HP can tell.

The separate CLUE help library is not provided anymore - and would have been removed by an operating system upgrade, as Uwe has shown.
