FUP

The File Utility Program (FUP) also provides an interactive management interface. It

performs operations on files stored on disk drives and tape volumes. With FUP, for

example, you can create, purge, duplicate, and display files, alter file characteristics,

and load data into files.

Through FUP commands, you can request several TMF operations. In particular, you

can designate files to be audited by TMF or you can change such a designation. The

FUP commands for Enscribe files related to these operations are listed in Table 1-1.

The equivalent NonStop SQLCI commands also apply.

Use the following FUP command options to indicate audited files:

•

AUDIT designates the file as audited by TMF.

•

NO AUDIT designates the file as nonaudited (default).

•

AUDITCOMPRESS designates audit compression for an audited file. Audit

compression is the writing of before-images and after-images to restore-audit files

so that only the changed portions of records are written.

•

NO AUDITCOMPRESS designates no audit compression for an audited file

(default).

For further information about FUP commands, see the File Utility Program (FUP)

Reference Manual.
