scriptsequence

NAME

SYNOPSIS

scriptsequence [ -a inform | -a query | -a cancel | -a init ]

AVAILABILITY

DESCRIPTION

The scriptsequence command reads the contrib.doc(1m) tag # R: text to check if it is allowed to rerun a recovery script without a message/query.

If text in # R: text is set to YES, JA, OUI or SI and the related recovery script is started again, no message is printed or no query is performed.

OPTIONS

-a inform

if the script is started out of ascending sequence or if a script is started again and no # R: YES is found in the recovery script documentation, print an information WARNING message, but start the recovery script nevertheless.

-a query

if the script is started out of ascending sequence or if a script is started again and no # R: YES is found in the recovery script documentation, query the user if the script should be started or canceled.

-a cancel

if the script is started out of ascending sequence or if a script is started again and no # R: YES is found in the recovery script documentation, cancel the recovery script start.

-a init

force the scriptsequence command to re-read the script tree on next start.

Normally this is not necessary, but if recovery scripts were added/deleted the scriptsequence needs to re-read the script tree.

When the current edrc session is exited and a new session is started, it is also not needed to invoke scripttree -a init .
