Time Values
The range of a 16-bit integer is -32768 through 32767 unless it is unsigned, in which
case the range is 0 through 65535.
The range of a 32-bit integer is -2147483647 through 2147483646 (-2**31 through
2**31-1).
The range of a 64-bit integer is -2**63 through 2**63-1.
Time Values
The variable time is used for attributes that require a time interval to be specified.
The syntax of time is:
[ [ hours : ] minutes : ] seconds [ . fraction ]
are integers, as defined on page 5-8. The variable fraction is an integer in the
range 000 through 999, representing a decimal fraction of a second. The only
required variable is seconds. The actual range for time for a particular attribute
is defined by the subsystem.
File Names
The variable file-spec is used for attributes that require a file name to be specified.
The syntax of file-spec is:
[[[ \system.]$volume.]subvolume.]filename
identify a specific system, a disk volume, a set of files defined by the user, and a
particular file name within a network.
For convenience, default values are provided for all parts of a complete file name
except filename. Default values for an SCF session can be established by using the
SYSTEM command (described on page 5-121) and VOLUME command (described on
page 5-132). The initial default values are the values provided by the command
interpreter through which SCF was invoked.
In the syntax descriptions for SCF commands, file-spec is used to denote a fully or
partially qualified file name. A fully qualified file name has all four parts explicitly
specified. A partially qualified file name has one or more optional parts missing; SCF
uses the appropriate default values to expand the file name to four parts.
[ [ hours : ] minutes : ] seconds [ . fraction ]
[[[ \system.]$volume.]subvolume.]filename
