Dear Glenn,
Thank you very much for theses details.
One question : Where can we found detailed documentation about OS level
universe's commands ?
I found nothing in the whole UV docs I have.
With kind regards.

Subject: [U2] [uv]CREATE.FILE syntax for remote directories
Apparently, my post on all the intricacies and details of using mkdbfile
got lost and all anyone saw was my signature. I too received just an
empty message and tried all manner of ways to view the text I actually
sent; I have learned that printing out the b apparentlyb empty message
and
holding a candle behind the page does in fact not only NOT reveal any
words, it actually causes the page to be consumed rather rapidly in
flames!!
Ok. So now that I got past the humorous part J, here is the re-created
reply which I sent:
You can create a dynamic file using mkdbfile as follows:
mkdbfile filename 30 <minmod> <grpsiz> <hash> <merge> <split> <largerec>
-u uid bg gid bm mode
where
<minmod> is the MINIMUM.MODULUS value
<grpsiz> is either 4 or 8 (for GROUP.SIZE 1 or 2 respectively)
<hash> is either 20 (GENERAL) or 21 (SEQ.NUM)
<merge> is the MERGE.LOAD value as a percentage
<split> is the SPLIT.LOAD value as a percentage
<largerec> is the LARGE.REC value as a percentage or decimal
-u uid is an optional value specifying ownership (must be root to change
from current user)
-g gid is an optional value specifying group ownership (must be root to
change from current group)
-m mode is an option decimal value specifying file permissions
For example:
mkdbfile MYFILE 30 10 4 20 50 80 1638 bm 438
would create a dynamic file named MYFILE with a minimum modulus value of
10, with a group separation of 4 (mapping to GROUP.SIZE 1), using an
internal hashing of GENERAL, where merging is performed once the file
falls below 50%, where splitting occurs once the file is over 80% full,
and large records (kept in the OVER.30 file) consist of 1638 character or
more. Additionally, the bm 438 option is used to set file permissions to
brw-rw-rw- (octal 666 converted from decimal 438).
And yes, I am now in the employ of IBM, which acquired Ascential and
DataStage.

Charles,
No rumor. IBM bought Ascential.

One might think there was no useful info in the attached post, but then
one notices that the "From" address tells us that Glenn Herbert now has
an IBM address.
If one assumes Glenn still has some association with DataStage, one may
deduce that there may have been some truth to the rumour that DataStage
now has some association with IBM. And it looks like things have
progressed beyond the idea stage.
