The Question is:
I have a logical search list
define logical disk1:[root.],disk2:[root.],disk3:[root.]
Given a logical path, logical:[directory], I need to work out which physical
disk the directory is on. Currently I use a loop and f$trnlnm to return each
translation in turn and then check for the directory. Is there an easier way
to do this using DCL?
The Answer is :
Your logical name definition is incorrect for a search list logical
name. The use of the CONCEALED attribute is required for general
operation:
$ define/TRANSLATION=CONCEALED -
logical disk1:[root.],disk2:[root.],disk3:[root.]
From an application, you could use sys$open to ask RMS to fill in the
various data structures.
From DCL, consider the f$file_attributes lexical DVI itemcode. You
will have to specify the directory as "logical:[000000]directory.DIR;1".
