DEFRAGMENT, MONITOR

 *Conan The Librarian

    The MONITOR subcommand displays the the progress of an ongoing
    defragmentation processes on a terminal.

    Format

      DEFRAGMENT MONITOR  { script-name|volume-name } [ /QUALIFIERS ]

  1 - Parameters

 script-name|volume-name

    The parameter for the MONITOR subcommand is either a script name
    or a volume name for Defrag PLUS. You can use wildcards in the
    script-name specification. Use an asterisk (*) to take action on
    all scripts on the VAXcluster system; use a percent sign (%) to
    match a single character in the script-name specification.

    If a volume name is supplied, then you must use the /VOLUME
    qualifier to tell Defrag PLUS the parameter is a volume name,
    rather than a script name.

  2 - Restrictions

    o  If a volume name is entered as a parameter, the /VOLUME
       qualifier must be used.

  3 - Qualifiers

 3.1 - /CONTINUOUS

       /CONTINUOUS (default)
       /NOCONTINUOUS

          The /CONTINUOUS qualifier invokes a continuous
          monitor display. Entering Ctrl/C, Ctrl/Y, or Ctrl
          /Z terminates this display.

          Using /NOCONTINUOUS provides a snapshot display and
          then returns to the DCL prompt.

 3.2 - /VOLUME

       /VOLUME (default)
       /NOVOLUME

          The /VOLUME qualifier indicates that a volume name
          instead of a script name is present on the command
          line. The /VOLUME qualifier must be used when a
          volume name is provided as a parameter to the MONITOR
          subcommand.

  4 - Examples

      The following are examples of invoking the monitor:

    1.$ DEFRAGMENT MONITOR MY_SCRIPT/NOVOLUME

      In this example, the monitor function displays ongoing run-time
      statistics for the defragmentation process associated with MY_
      SCRIPT. It also displays an approximate free-space map of the
      target volume. The display continues until interrupted with a
      Ctrl/C, Ctrl/Y, or Ctrl/Z because the /CONTINUOUS qualifier is
      present by default.

    2.$ DEFRAGMENT MONITOR DISK$ONE/NOCONTINUOUS

      In this example, the defragmentation process executing against
      DISK$ONE is monitored. Since the /NOCONTINUOUS qualifier was
      specified, the monitor function samples the defragmentation
      process statistics and the free space on DISK$ONE one time
      before exiting to the DCL prompt.
