Gentlemen,
There seems to be some confusion about the save_all.sh script.
This script is meant to save time and effort maintaining the boring
save_alls for the control databases. The script depends on the Foxboro
supplied tools to performs this task from the command line. These Foxboro
scripts reside in the directory /opt/fox/ciocfg/api. Maybe this is causing
the confusion. When "our" script is executed from a WP (i.e. NOT an AW or
AP) the script will NOT find the Foxboro tools it requires and reports this.
(It maybe a good idea to improve the error message generated, sorry for
this!). So the script must be run from a AW or AP 50 or higher.
The location of the script is NOT important, all we suggest is /opt/tools.
The script should be executed from the installation directory however.
So:
The script checks for the avialability of SA_EXEC variable beeing either
(including the path) /opt/fox/ciocfg/api/save_all OR (for NT)
/opt/fox/ciocfg/api/save_all.ksh.
So it is only looking for the Foxboro script it needs to complete the task.
Hope this helps...
Kind regards,
Ron Deen

Following up my own message is bad protocol :-(
I did find a shell script in this directory called save_all (without
the .sh extension). Is this the correct one? Should I edit the supplied
save_all.sh, to represent this changed name?
