1 /DISABLE
/DISABLE[=(keyword[,...])] Prevents the tracking of the resources specified by the keywords. The following table lists the keywords you can use to specify the type of resource. Keyword Type of Resource IMAGE Resources used by an image LOGIN_FAILURE Resources used by an unsuccessful attempt to log in MESSAGE Unformatted record written to the accounting file by a call to the $SNDJBC system service PRINT Resources used by a print job PROCESS Resources used by a process You do not need to stop the tracking of all processes and images. You can prevent resources being tracked for specific types of process and for images running in these types of process. The following table lists the keywords you can use to specify the type of process. Keyword Type of Process BATCH Batch process DETACHED Detached process INTERACTIVE Interactive process NETWORK Network process SUBPROCESS Subprocess (the parent process can be a batch, detached, network, or interactive process) If the system is no longer tracking any resources, /DISABLE closes the current accounting file. If you use the /DISABLE qualifier and omit the keywords, the current accounting file does not track any resources, and the system closes the file.
2 /ENABLE
/ENABLE[=(keyword[,...])] Enables the tracking of the specified resources, and opens the current accounting file if it is not already open. The following table lists the keywords you can use to specify the type of resource. Keyword Type of Resource IMAGE Resources used by an image LOGIN_FAILURE Resources used by an unsuccessful attempt to log in MESSAGE (Unformatted record written to the accounting file by a call to the $SNDJBC system service) PRINT Resources used by a print job PROCESS Resources used by a process You do not need to track all processes and images. You can track resources for specific types of process and for images running in those types of process. The following table lists the keywords you can use to specify the type of process. Keyword Type of Process BATCH Batch process DETACHED Detached process INTERACTIVE Interactive process NETWORK Network process SUBPROCESS Subprocess (the parent process can be a batch, detached, network, or interactive process) If you use the /ENABLE qualifier and omit the keywords, the current accounting file tracks all resources.
3 /LOG
Writes information to the current SYS$OUTPUT device as the command executes.
4 /NEW_FILE
Closes the current accounting file, and starts up a new version of it. The name of the new file depends on whether the logical name ACCOUNTNG is defined in your system logical name table. If this logical name is not defined, the SET ACCOUNTING command opens the file SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT. If this logical name is defined, the command opens the file that this logical name points to. If you omit the directory, SYS$MANAGER is the default, and if you omit the file type, .DAT is the default. The /NEW_FILE qualifier writes a record to the end of the old file that contains a forward pointer to the new file, and a record to the beginning of the new file that contains a backward pointer to the old file. These records contain the names of the new and old files respectively.
