Selects or rejects records for DECnet for OpenVMS requests made
by the specified remote IDs.
Format
/REMOTE_ID=([-]remote_id[,...])
21.1 – Description
The /REMOTE_ID qualifier uses the value of the remote ID field
to select records for processing. This field is present in all
records except file backward link and file forward link records.
For records that contain information about DECnet for OpenVMS
requests, this field contains a string that identifies the user
who made the request. If the remote process was on an OpenVMS
node, this is the user name of the user at the remote node.
The /REMOTE_ID qualifier selects only records that have the
specified values in the remote ID field. If you precede the
values with a minus sign, it selects all records except those
with the specified values.
See also the /NODE and /ADDRESS qualifiers, which select or
reject records for DECnet for OpenVMS requests made by nodes
with specified names and addresses respectively.
21.2 – Example
$ ACCOUNTING /NODE=HQ223 /REMOTE_ID=SMITH /FULL
This example processes the file SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT.
It produces a full report of all the records for DECnet for
OpenVMS requests made by user SMITH at the node HQ223.
22 /REPORT
Specifies the resources that you want to summarize in a summary
report.
Format
/REPORT[=(resource[,...])]
22.1 – Keyword
resource[,...]
Specifies the resources that you want to summarize in the report.
The following table shows the keywords available.
Keyword Description How Summarized
BUFFERED_IO Number of buffered Total
I/Os
DIRECT_IO Number of direct Total
I/Os
ELAPSED, Elapsed time Total
EXECUTION Number of images run Total
by the process
FAULTS Number of hard and Total
soft page faults
GETS Number of GETs from Total
the file that was
printed
PAGE_FILE Page file usage Maximum
PAGE_READS Number of hard page Total
faults
PAGES Number of pages Total
printed
PROCESSOR Total CPU time used Total
QIOS Number of QIOs to Total
the printer
RECORDS Number of accounting Total
file records
processed
VECTOR_ Vector CPU time Total
PROCESSOR used (see the
description of the
/FULL qualifier for
further details)
VOLUMES Number of volumes Total
mounted
WORKING_SET Working set size Maximum
The RECORDS keyword is the default if you omit either the
keywords or the /REPORT qualifier. It gives the total number
of records for each summary key value.
22.2 – Description
The /REPORT qualifier specifies the resources that you want to
summarize in a summary report. The resources are summarized,
either as totals or maximum values, for each summary key value
specified by the /SUMMARY qualifier.
When a record is processed that does not contain the specified
resource field, a default value of 0 is used. For example, if you
use the PAGES keyword to summarize the total pages printed, the
value of 0 is used for each record that is not of type PRINT.
Note that the resource usage data stored in records of type IMAGE
is a subset of the data stored in records of type PROCESS. For
example, the CPU time stored in a record of type PROCESS includes
the CPU time used by the images executed by that process. To
make sure that you do not count the same resource data twice when
you are summarizing process resources by totals, use the /TYPE
qualifier to exclude records of type IMAGE.
You cannot use the /REPORT qualifier without the /SUMMARY
qualifier.
22.3 – Examples
1.$ ACCOUNTING /SUMMARY=IMAGE /REPORT=(RECORDS,PROCESSOR)
This example processes the file SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT. It
produces a summary report that shows for each image the number
of times it was executed and the total CPU time consumed.
2.$ ACCOUNTING /TYPE=-IMAGE /SUMMARY=USER /REPORT=EXECUTION
This example processes the file SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT. It
produces a summary report that shows the total number of images
executed by each user. Notice the use of the /TYPE qualifier to
exclude records of type IMAGE to avoid double counting.
23 /SINCE
Selects all records time-stamped at or after the specified time.
Format
/SINCE[=time]
23.1 – Description
All records in an accounting file are time-stamped with the time
the record was logged in the file.
The /SINCE qualifier selects only the records time-stamped on or
after the specified time. You can specify an absolute time, delta
time, or a combination of the two. If you omit the time, 00:00
hours on the current day is used.
See also the /BEFORE qualifier, which selects records time-
stamped before a specified time.
23.2 – Example
$ ACCOUNTING /SINCE=5-JAN-2000
This example produces a brief report of all records
time-stamped at or after 5-JAN-2000 in the file
SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT.
24 /SORT
Sorts the selected records.
Format
/SORT[=([-]sort_field[,...])]
24.1 – Keyword
sort_field[,...]
Specifies the sort key.
The following table shows the keywords available. You can specify
up to ten sort fields.
Keyword Sorts on This Field
ACCOUNT Account
ADDRESS Address of the node that made the DECnet for
OpenVMS request
BUFFERED_IO Number of buffered I/Os
DIRECT_IO Number of direct I/Os
ELAPSED Elapsed time
ENTRY Print or batch job queue entry number
EXECUTION Number of images run by the process
FAULTS Number of hard and soft page faults
FINISHED Time record was logged in the accounting file
GETS Number of GETs from the file that was printed
IDENT Process identifier (PID)
IMAGE Image name (sorts only on file name portion of
the image file specification)
JOB Name of print or batch job
NODE Name of the node that made the DECnet for
OpenVMS request
OWNER PID of parent process
PAGE_FILE Peak page file usage
PAGE_READS Number of hard page faults
PAGES Number of pages printed
PRIORITY Base process priority, or print or batch queue
priority
PROCESS Type of process
PROCESSOR Total CPU time used
QIOS Number of QIOs to the printer
QUEUE Name of print or batch queue
QUEUED Time print job was queued
STARTED Start time
STATUS Final exit status code
TERMINAL Terminal name
TYPE Type of record
UIC User identification code
USER User name at local node
VECTOR_ Vector CPU time (see the description of the
PROCESSOR /FULL qualifier for further details)
VOLUMES Number of volumes mounted
WORKING_SET Peak working set size
For each keyword, see the description of the corresponding
Accounting utility qualifier or the table in the /TYPE qualifier
section for details of the types of record in which the
corresponding field is present.
24.2 – Description
The /SORT qualifier merges the selected records from each
input file (each file listed in the parameter to the ACCOUNTING
command) and sorts them using the specified sort key. The records
are sorted according to the value of the first sort field in the
list, and when two or more records have the same value in this
field, they are sorted by the value of the second sort field in
the list, and so on.
The records are sorted in ascending order of the sort field
value. If the keyword is preceded by a minus sign, the records
are sorted in descending order.
When you use the /SORT qualifier, records are rejected if they do
not contain the sort field. For example, /SORT=IMAGE rejects all
records that are not of type IMAGE, because the image name field
is only present in records of type IMAGE. Similarly, /SORT=PAGES
rejects all records except those for print jobs.
You cannot use the /SORT qualifier with the /SUMMARY qualifier.
24.3 – Examples
1.$ ACCOUNTING /TYPE=PRINT /SORT=USER
This example processes the file SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT. It
produces a brief report of all the records for print jobs and
displays them in user name order.
The following example shows the report that is produced:

2.$ ACCOUNTING MYFILE1.DAT,MYFILE2.DAT /SORT=IMAGE -
_$ /FULL /REJECTED=NON_IMAGE.DAT
This example processes two files, MYFILE1.DAT and MYFILE2.DAT,
to produce a full report of records of type IMAGE, sorted in
image name order. It creates the file NON_IMAGE.DAT, and copies
all records except those of type IMAGE to that file. Notice
that no selection qualifiers are used, and so all records are
selected for processing. When the records are sorted, records
that do not contain an image name are rejected.
25 /STATUS
Selects or rejects records with the specified final exit status
codes.
Format
/STATUS=([-]status_code[,...])
25.1 – Description
The /STATUS qualifier uses the value of the final status code
field to select records for processing. This field is present
in all records except records of type USER, file backward link
records, and file forward link records.
The /STATUS qualifier selects only records that have the
specified values in the final status code field. If you precede
the values with a minus sign, it selects all records except those
with the specified values.
See the description of the /BRIEF qualifier for details of how to
convert a final exit status code to the equivalent message text.
Each status-code must be a hexadecimal number of eight digits or
less.
25.2 – Example
$ ACCOUNTING /STATUS=10D38064
This example processes the file SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT. It
produces a brief report of all records with a final exit status
code of 10D38064.
26 /SUMMARY
Produces a summary report of the selected records.
Format
/SUMMARY[=(summary_item[,...])]
26.1 – Keyword
summary_item[,...]
Specifies the summary key. The following table lists keywords:
Keyword Description
ACCOUNT Account
DATE Date
DAY Day of month (1-31)
HOUR Hour of day (0-23)
IMAGE Image name (file name portion of image file
specification)
JOB Name of print or batch job
MONTH Month of year (1-12)
NODE Name of the node that issued the DECnet for OpenVMS
request
PROCESS Process type
QUEUE Print or batch job queue name
TERMINAL Terminal name
TYPE Record type
UIC User identification code
USER User name
WEEKDAY Day of week (0=Sunday, 1=Monday, and so on)
YEAR Year
If you omit these keywords, the user name is used as the summary
key.
26.2 – Description
The /SUMMARY qualifier produces a summary report of the selected
records. The report is directed to the current SYS$OUTPUT device,
unless you use the /OUTPUT qualifier to write it to a file.
Summary reports give statistical summaries of the resources
specified by the /REPORT qualifier for each value of the summary
key specified by the /SUMMARY qualifier. If you omit the /REPORT
qualifier, the summary report gives the total number of records
processed for each summary key value.
The first line of the summary report shows the time span of the
data processed (when the first and last records processed were
logged in the input files), with a title in the middle. You can
use the /TITLE qualifier to specify your own title.
The next few lines of the report are column headings. There
is one column for each summary_item, then one column for each
resource specified by the /REPORT qualifier. The columns are laid
out in the same left-to-right sequence as the equivalent keywords
in the /SUMMARY and /REPORT qualifiers.
The rest of the report uses one line for each summary key value.
It gives a summary of the resources associated with that summary
key value. The data is sorted in ascending order of the summary
key value.
See also the /BINARY qualifier, which copies the selected records
to a file, and the /BRIEF and /FULL qualifiers, which produce
brief and full reports of the selected records.
You cannot use the /SUMMARY qualifier with the /BINARY, /BRIEF,
or /FULL qualifiers.

The /TERMINAL qualifier uses the value of the terminal name field
to select records for processing. This field is present in all
records except file backward link and file forward link records.
For records that contain information about interactive sessions,
this field contains the name of the terminal associated with the
session.
The /TERMINAL qualifier selects only records that have the
specified values in the terminal name field. If you precede the
values with a minus sign, it selects all records except those
with the specified values.
Give the terminal name as the standard device name and include
the colon (:).
27.2 – Example

the first line of summary reports. The title is truncated if it
is too long. For reports displayed on your screen, the title is
truncated if it is longer than (W-56) characters, where W is the
width (in characters) of your screen.
28.2 – Example
$ ACCOUNTING /SUMMARY=IMAGE /TITLE="June Accounting Report"
This example processes the file SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT. It
produces a summary report that shows the number of times each
image was executed. The title "June Accounting Report" appears
at the top of the report.

system service to send an accounting message.
29.2 – Description
All records in an accounting file contain a type field that
contains the type of the record.
The /TYPE qualifier selects the specified types of record. If you
precede the list with a minus sign, it selects all records except
those specified.
See also the /PROCESS qualifier, which selects or rejects records
for particular types of process.
29.3 – Example
$ ACCOUNTING /TYPE=PRINT
This example processes the file SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT. It
produces a brief report of all records for print jobs.
$ ACCOUNTING /TYPE=-PRINT
This example processes the file SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT. It
produces a brief report of all records except those for print
jobs.
30 /UIC
Selects or rejects records for the specified UICs.
Format
/UIC=([-]uic[,...])
30.1 – Description
The /UIC qualifier uses the value of the UIC field to select
records for processing. This field is present in all records
except file backward link and file forward link records. It
contains the value [SYSTEM] for login failure records where the
user did not give a valid user name.
The /UIC qualifier selects only records that have the specified
values in the UIC field. If you precede the values with a minus
sign enclosed in parentheses and followed by a comma, all records
except those with the specified values are selected.
You can specify the UIC in numeric or alphanumeric format, and
can use the asterisk (*) wildcard character.
30.2 – Examples
1.$ ACCOUNTING /UIC=([360,*],[ADMIN,COTTON])
This example processes the file SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT.
It produces a brief report of all records for users in group
number 360 or users whose UIC is [ADMIN,COTTON].
31 /USER
Selects or rejects records for the specified user names.
Format

32 /WIDE
Changes the width of Buffered I/O and Direct I/O fields in a
report from 8 to 10 characters.
When used with the /BRIEF qualifier, it increases the SOURCE
field length to 9 characters resulting in a total display
width of 81 characters for both interactive and non-interactive
processes. By default, the display of the SOURCE field is
truncated to 8 characters, which results in a total display
width of 80 characters.
Format
/WIDE
32.1 – Description
This qualifier corrects a problem that users have had with
ACCOUNTING reports: the Buffered I/O and Direct I/O fields were
too small and displayed asterisks (*) when numbers exceeded 8
characters.
The /WIDE qualifier changes the widths of the Buffered I/O and
Direct I/O fields in reports to 10 characters.
When used with the /BRIEF qualifier, it displays the trailing
colon of long device names in the SOURCE field.
The /WIDE qualifier in conjunction with /BRIEF qualifier is
used to display 9 characters of the SOURCE field. The /WIDE
qualifier extends the width of display to 81 characters
irrespective of the current terminal width and the type of
process, that is, whether the process is interactive,
non-interactive, or batch process.
