Qualifiers

 

/ALL
   Uninstalls all patch and mandatory updates for which recovery
   data has been saved. Once the operation completes, all the
   recovery data sets are deleted and cannot be reused. If you do
   not specify the /ALL, /NEWEST, or /SINCE qualifier, only the most
   recently created recovery data set is used to select patches and
   mandatory updates to remove.
 

/LOG
      /LOG
      /NOLOG (default)

   Displays the file specifications of files as they are accessed;
   also provides other information related to file activity. For
   example, when logging is enabled, messages notify you when
   product files, libraries, directories, and product database files
   are created, deleted, or modified.
 

/NEWEST
      /NEWEST=count

   Selects the most recently created patch recovery data sets. For
   example, if you specify /NEWEST=3, the PRODUCT UNDO PATCH command
   uninstalls patches using data from the three newest recovery data
   sets. If you do not specify a number with this qualifier, the
   default value is 1.
 

/OPTIONS
      /OPTIONS=keyword
      /NOOPTIONS (default)

   Specifies PRODUCT command options. The keyword is:

   NOCONFIRM        Omits the confirmation dialog that asks the user
                    to verify the recovery data sets that have been
                    selected for processing.
 

/REMOTE
      /REMOTE
      /NOREMOTE (default)

   Selects recovery data sets located on a privately mounted system
   disk and restores the product database to this disk. By default,
   PCSI searches the currently booted system disk for recovery data
   sets.

   When you use /REMOTE, the following logical names must be
   defined:

   o  PCSI$SYSDEVICE must specify the physical disk name of the
      target system disk. This disk must be mounted and allocated to
      the process executing the PRODUCT command.

   o  PCSI$SPECIFIC must point to a system root on PCSI$SYSDEVICE.
      It must be defined in the following form, where x is a valid
      system root:

      PCSI$SYSDEVICE:[SYSx.]
 

/SINCE
      /SINCE=time

   Selects recovery data sets that were created on or after the
   specified date and time. You can specify time as an absolute
   time, as a combination of absolute and delta times, or as one of
   the following keywords:

      TODAY (default)
      YESTERDAY

   For information about specifying time values, see the OpenVMS
   User's Manual.
 

/TRACE
      /TRACE
      /NOTRACE (default)

   Identifies the creation and deletion of subprocesses and the DCL
   commands and command procedures submitted to these subprocesses
   for execution during the processing of the PRODUCT command.
   Messages log the creation and deletion of scratch directories and
   temporary files that the PCSI utility provides for the subprocess
   environment. Any output that DCL produces is also displayed.

   This qualifier is primarily a debugging aid for product
   developers to trace the execution of command procedures included
   in their product kits. See the POLYCENTER Software Installation
   Utility Developer's Guide for more information.
