The main reason I wanted to use "upd scr" is because it will append to an
existing script. I don't necessarily want to reschedule these jobs, I
want to document which failed so that I can manually rerun them at some
point. documenting them in a script makes rerunning more convenient.
The idea behind this script is:
ba node NASHOST /nasvol1 toc=y mode=full w=y # NDMP Backup
if(rc_ok) goto next11 #IF its ok, skip the next line
upd scr RERUN "ba node NASHOST /nasvol1 toc=y mode=full" #creating a list
of all the NDMP backups that failed in a ready-to-go-script
next11:
q scr cancel #if I want to cancel a long inline server script, i do a
quick "def scr cancel" then cancel the processes. These scripts will take
days to run, so this is usefull to fully and quickly cancel a long chain
of scripts#
if(rc_ok) exit
ba node NASHOST /nasvol2 toc=y mode=full w=y
if(rc_ok) goto next12
upd scr TEST_RERUN "ba node NASHOST /nasvol2 toc=y mode=full"
next12:
q scr cancel
if(rc_ok) exit
The workaround I'm going with is to just define individual scripts for
each failure. I guess I'll just keep wondering why you can "def scr" but
not "upd scr" within a script.
Regards,
Shawn

Re: [ADSM-L] Updating a script within a script
Using Update Script is tedious and error-prone.
The better approach is to manage your script as an OS file and then do
DELete SCRipt <ScriptName>
DEFine SCRipt <ScriptName> File=_______________
