Consolidating Records
You can consolidate records by renaming a program or file, or a group of programs or files, to one
file. This is very useful in improving the readability of the statistic reports. If a file or program
name matches the target file name, NBLGTRAN substitutes the new file name in lieu of the actual file
name. The CF command changes the file name, while the CP command changes the program name.
See the following syntax for CF and CP.
CF/target-file set/new-file name
CP/target-file set/new-file name
Examples
To combine all files in the WORK group into one file called MISC, use the following scenario record:
CF/@.WORK.MFG/MISC.WORK.MFG
Similarly, to combine all programs running out of the FIXIT group into one program called FIXIT:
CP/@.FIXIT.MFG/FIXIT.PROG.MFG
Removing Records
You can remove certain files of limited interest, such as menu driver files, from the log files. If a
file or program name matches the target file name, NBLGTRAN will delete that log file record from
the new log file. The EF command will delete the record if the file name matches, while the EP
command deletes if the program name matches. See the following syntax for EF and EP.
EF/target-file set/
EP/target-file set/
Examples
To exclude a file or set of files from the log file, use the exclude command. To exclude all files
accessed in the TEMP group, use the following scenario command:
EF/@.TEMP.MFG/
Note. The trailing / must be entered, otherwise an invalid file name error will result.
