Someone wrote a perl process that marks files to be archived and
archives them one at a time. Very inefficient when there are literally
hundreds of thousands of files that need to be done. Now I'd have chose
a different way, and I admit I'm not a programmer nor have I seen the
script, but my command line q archive commands have so far returned
nothing. 

 

I know the process is running because I saw it earlier today and the
files are going to the proper pool. The administrator of the Unix box
tried to use the GUI to pull a list of archives but according to him it
ran 2.5 hours and never returned anything so he killed the session. The
question is what command line command will return something for me to
see, even if it is a subset, which is really what I am trying to get.
Below is a few of the commands I've run without success. I've run them
from the directory where the files sit and higher up the tree all with
the "ANS1092W No files matching search criteria were found" message
returned. So am I in the wrong path, is the command wrong or do I need
to see their job to really figure it out?

 

As a side note, in theory I am logged in as the user that is supposed to
be the owner of the files and I am not getting an unauthorized message
but since I have no root access I can't try the commands there. 

 

dsmc q archive "*"

dsmc q archive "/psoft/*" -subdir=yes

dsmc q archive /psoft/ -subdir=yes

dsmc q archive -fromdate=02/15/2007 "/psoft/psprd/input/archive/"

dsmc q archive -fromdate=02/15/2007 "/psoft/psprd/input/archive/*"

 

Thanks for the help.
