All,

I have seen the usage of LIST command in different format.

a) LIST then a single space and then a command.

something like below

LIST DICT

b) LIST then dot and then a command.

something like below

LIST.READU
LIST.READU EVERY
LIST READU ALL
LIST.INDEX
LIST.REINDEX
LIST.INDEX <TABLENAME> ALL
LIST.REINDEX ALL
LIST.INDEX hashedfile ALL

I am not going to concentrate much on option a.

I would like to get the list of LIST. <xxxxxx> options available in datastage.

Can you please add as much as possible from your repository (brain) ?

Code: Select all

LIST.READU = Display Active Record Locks

LIST.READU EVERY = Display Active Group & Record Locks

LIST.READU ALL = Display Active Record Locks

No, because all of these can easily be found in UniVerse technical manuals (to which others have linked in the past).

Option (a) would expand your horizons immensely; LIST is the principal command of a UniVerse query language called RetrieVe (called other things in other database products, such as INFORM in Prime INFORMATION and ENGLISH in Unidata). But pursuing this would not be focussing on your "core business" - that is, what you are being paid to do.
