VMS Help REQUEST, Examples *Conan The Librarian |
1.$ PRINT/COPIES=2/QUEUE=LQ_PRINT REPORT.OUT/FORM=LETTER
Job REPRT (queue LQA1, entry 401) pending
$ REQUEST/REPLY/TO=PRINTER -
_$"Have queued job 401 as FORM=LETTER; can you print it?"
%OPCOM-S-OPRNOTIF, operator notified, waiting...10:42:16.10
%OPCOM-S-OPREPLY, AFTER 11:00
14-DEC-2001 10:25:32.40, request 3 completed by operator OPA0
In this example the PRINT command requests that multiple copies
of a file be printed using a special paper (/FORM=LETTER).
After queueing the job to the printer, the REQUEST command
sends a message to the system operator.
The operator sends a reply after completing the request.
2.$ REQUEST/REPLY "Are you there?"
%OPCOM-S-OPRNOTIF, operator notified, waiting...14:54:30.33
<Ctrl/C>
REQUEST-Enter message or cancel request with ^Z
REQUEST-Message?<Ctrl/Z>
%OPCOM-S-OPRNOTIF, operator notified, waiting... 14:59:01.38
%OPCOM-F-RQSTCAN, request was canceled
In this example the REQUEST command issues a message and
requests a response. When no operator replies to the question,
Ctrl/C is used to interrupt the request; then Ctrl/Z is used to
cancel it.
