COLLECT Command
If OUT file-name is specified, Spoolcom writes the data to it in a
manner suitable for the file type, process, or device. file-name must be
specified; if the file does not exist, Spoolcom creates an EDIT file (file type
101). The file can be an EDIT file, an unstructured file, a relative file, an
entry-sequenced file, a spooler job file, a process, or a device.
DETAIL
requests a complete list of all collector attributes. See Examples for All
Users on page 3-18 for an example of the STATUS DETAIL display.
If $process-name is not specified, then the status of all collectors in the
spooler subsystem is returned.
If $process-name is specified, then the status of only that collector is
returned.
SUMMARY
displays a summary of the state of the collector processes, such as the
number of collector processes in active, dormant, and error state and the
total number of collector processes. Can be used only when $process-
name is missing.
UNIT unit-size
is the amount of collection file space allocated to a job initially and each time
additional space is needed. It is expressed in units of 1024 bytes (512 words).
The valid range is 2 through 32767. Once a collector has been started, the
setting of UNIT cannot be altered, even if jobs have been collected. See
Considerations on page 3-15 for more information.
Considerations
•
If neither $process-name nor subcommand is specified, Spoolcom displays the
status of all collectors.
•
Any user can get the status of a collector.
•
The DETAIL parameter of the STATUS subcommand provides a complete list of
collector attributes.
•
Only authorized users can modify collector attributes.
•
The collector must be in the dormant state before its attributes can be specified or
changed.
•
The COLLECT command must specify the CPU subcommand before the BACKUP
subcommand. If the specified backup processor number is the same as the
primary processor number, no backup is created.
