Qualifiers

 

/BASE_SYSTEM
      /BASE_SYSTEM=base-system-name

   Selects software products whose base system matches the one
   specified. The base system name identifies both a hardware
   platform and an operating system. Standard names are:

   Name          Description

   AXPVMS        Denotes an OpenVMS Alpha product.
   I64VMS        Denotes an OpenVMS I64 product.
   VAXVMS        Denotes an OpenVMS VAX product.
   VMS           Indicates a product that can be installed on more
                 than one OpenVMS platform.
 

/FULL
      /FULL
      /NOFULL (default)

   Displays information in 132-column format. The /NOFULL qualifier
   displays a subset of available information in 80-column format.
 

/KIT_ATTRIBUTES
      /KIT_ATTRIBUTES=keyword([,...])

   Selects kits by kit type or kit format, or both. Keywords are:

   FORMAT=      Designates the format of the product kit as follows:
   format-type
                COMPRESSED  Compressed format in which a data
                            compression technique has been applied
                            to a sequential kit. A compressed kit
                            has a .PCSI$COMPRESSED file type.

                REFERENCE   Reference format in which product
                            files exist in a directory tree. A
                            .PCSI$DESCRIPTION file in the top
                            level of the directory tree denotes a
                            reference kit.

                SEQUENTIAL  Sequential format in which product files
                            are placed in a container file. A file
                            type of .PCSI indicates a sequential
                            kit.

   TYPE=        Specifies the type of product kit as follows:
   kit-type
                FULL        Layered product (application) software.

                OPERATING_  Operating system software.
                SYSTEM

                MANDATORY_  A required correction to currently
                UPDATE      installed software. Functionally, this
                            type of kit is the same as a patch kit.

                PARTIAL     An upgrade to currently installed
                            software. Installation of this kit
                            changes the version of the product.

                PATCH       A correction to currently installed
                            software. Installation of this kit does
                            not change the version of the product.

                PLATFORM    An integrated set of software products
                            (also called a product suite).

                TRANSITION  Used to register information about
                            a product that is installed but not
                            recorded in the product database
                            (for example, a product installed by
                            VMSINSTAL). This kit does not provide
                            product material.
 

/PRODUCER
      /PRODUCER=producer-name

   Selects software products that the specified manufacturer
   produces.
 

/SOURCE
      /SOURCE=device-name:[directory-name]

   Specifies the disk and directory where the utility searches for
   the software product kit or kits. If /SOURCE is not specified,
   the utility searches in the location defined by the logical
   name PCSI$SOURCE. If PCSI$SOURCE is not defined, and the /SOURCE
   qualifier is not specified, PCSI searches the current default
   directory.
 

/SPAN_VERSIONS
      /SPAN_VERSIONS=keyword([,...])

   Selects software products whose versions match the specified
   version criteria. The keywords are:

   ABOVE=version    Selects versions greater than the version
                    specified

   BELOW=version    Selects versions less than the version specified

   MINIMUM=version  Selects versions greater than or equal to the
                    version specified

   MAXIMUM=version  Selects versions less than or equal to the
                    version specified

   The ABOVE, BELOW, MINIMUM, and MAXIMUM keywords can be
   used alone or in combination. For example, /SPAN_VERSIONS=
   (MINIMUM=V2.1,BELOW=V3.0) selects versions greater than or equal
   to V2.1 and less than (but not including) V3.0. Using the MAXIMUM
   keyword instead of BELOW would select versions that include V3.0.
 

/VERSION
      /VERSION=version-number

   Selects software products that have the specified version.
