Only way of migrating between platforms(Windows > UNIX, UNIX > Windows, Mainframe > UNIX/Windows and so on) and retain the information stored in your library is to do a export-import scenario(server-to-server would probably be the way to go) of all data between the servers. Best Regards Danie

Hi, To redirect the output of a select statement to a file, you can write a macro for the select statement and place the redirect symbol and filename to redirect to at the end of the macro. Then just call the macro and it should work fine. ie: macro.mac: Contents of macro.mac should look lik

Hi Matthew, I can't say that I would know how to do that with select statements. I'm not sure if you can use if statements to print 0 if there are no matches found. But, you could script something that would replace the "no matches" with 0. Hope this helps, maybe someone else has a better soluti

Hi Matthew I notice you have a space after the '>'. I remember a discussion on how the '> redirect' gets confused with '> greater than' and the (rather vague) solution was to interpret the space after the '>' as an indicator that this was a greater than, and not a redirect... hence the illegal

I don't think that redirection is supported during the execution of a script, which is why Matthew's original error occurred. Yes, the issues regarding redirection from within the Admin CLI are that it is not easy to distinguish when '>' is for redirection versus "greater than". When redirecting f

Neil, One possible approach is to install the Windows TSM Server, connect it to the library, then set up server-to-server communications between the Solaris server and Windows server. Once this is established, you can use EXPORT NODE to copy the data from the Solaris server to the Windows server.
