RE: [U2] UV - commands from Unix
You should have the man pages for Unix-level commands. Try 'man mkdbfile'. Or 'man -k mkdbfile'.

I'm also very interested in UVchange, UVdelete, UVread and UVwrite - they appear to allow editing of universe records at the os level... As all ways, any advice is appreciated.

RE: [U2] UV - commands from Unix
I've never seen documentation, but you can run some of them with no parameters and get a usage message. You can also search the mailing list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=u2-users%40listserver.u2ug.orgq=mkdbfi le -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Hennessey, Mark F.

RE: [U2] UV - commands from Unix
Larry: That was actually the first thing I checked However none of the programs in /.UVHOME/uv/bin seem to have associated man pages... If you're lucky you get some output that might lead a clever person to the right choices. Sadly, I am not clever... e.g., $ UVwrite usage: DBwrite file item field ... snip You should have the man pages for Unix-level commands. Try 'man mkdbfile'.

RE: [U2] UV - commands from Unix
No, the UV... Commands won't be in the man pages, typically. Try the Universe help command. I haven't worked with Universe in a while, but I know that Unidata has online help for some of the Unix level Unidata commands (eg. HELP GUIDE or HELP USAM). --Larry Larry Hiscock Western Computer Services -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Hennessey, Mark F.
