Commands

The feature is invoked by specifying TRIGGER or TRIGGERONFILESET option in the

SYNCHRONIZE, ADD SYNCFILESET, or ALTER SYNCFILESET commands:

Commands

TRIGGER

Specify a complete TACL or OSS command line that includes built-in arguments that

are replaced by appropriate file names. The maximum length of the command-text is

128 bytes.

The command line can contain built-in arguments. Each argument starts with a pound

sign (#) and is terminated by a TACL delimiter character such as space, comma (,),

and so on. Arguments can be specified in either upper case or in lower case.

If command-text calls for a parameter that is specified between quotes, you need to

use double quotes (““) to specify the parameter. For example:

TRIGGER Arguments



#SYNCFILE is replaced with the destination file that has just been created or

replaced by AutoSYNC. For OSS files the absolute pathname is specified.



#SOURCEFILE is replaced with the name of the original source file. For OSS files

the absolute pathname is specified.



#RECOVERFILE is replaced with the name of the file that was renamed by

AutoSYNC for recovery.

AutoSYNC automatically creates recovery files in both the following situations:



for recovery purposes,



when the open file has been renamed because the user specified the

RENAMEOPEN option. (Guardian syncfilesets only)
