LEGATO NetWorker, Release 6.0.1-x, HP OpenVMS Version
Release Supplement
Chapter 1: NetWorker Software Release 6.0.1-D
11
NetWorker release 6.0.1-D defines its own root directories (NSR$node) based on the
name of the node on which it is running. The cluster root directories ([SYS0.], [SYS1.],
and so on) are no longer used.
Because the system logical names SYS$COMMON, SYS$SPECIFIC, and
SYS$SYSROOT can no longer be used as a reliable method of specifying the location of
the NetWorker directory tree, three new logical names are defined by the startup
procedure in this release of NetWorker:
NSR$COMMON
NSR$SPECIFIC
NSR$SYSROOT
These new logical names can be used in place of the aforementioned system logical
names to identify the current location of the NetWorker directories, regardless of the
destination specified for the installation. The logical names defined in previous
releases of NetWorker that provided shortcuts to the NetWorker directories continue
to function as they did before. These include the following:
NSR$BITMAPS
NSR$LOGS
NSR$RES
NSR$SYSTEM
NSR$TMP
Extended File Specifications Now Supported
OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.2 introduced a new feature called extended file specifications.
This feature, which was enhanced in OpenVMS Version 7.3-1, includes the following:
• A new, optional volume structure called On-Disk Structure Level 5 (ODS-5),
which extends the features of the existing ODS-2 disk structure adding support
for longer filenames and a wider range of legal characters for use within
filenames
• Filename case preservation and recognition
• Support for deeper directory structures
These new features and enhancements allow the OpenVMS operating system to store,
manage, serve, and access files with names that are more traditionally used in a
Microsoft Windows operating system environment.
To create a process environment where commands are examined using the ODS-5 file
specification syntax, you must set the DCL parse style to "extended" using the
following command:
$ SET PROCESS /PARSE_STYLE=EXTENDED
The default parse style is TRADITIONAL.
The sections that follow provide more detail on these new OpenVMS features and
explain how this release of NetWorker supports them. For more information on
extended file specifications, ODS-5 volume structure, and case-sensitive filesystem
operations, refer to the following OpenVMS documentation:
