The description option assigns or specifies a description for files when performing archive, delete, retrieve, or query archive operations. For example, if you want to archive a file named budget.jan and assign to it the description 2002 Budget for Proj 1, you would enter:
dsmc archive -des="2002 Budget for Proj 1" /home/plan/ proj1/budget.jan
You can also use this option to specify the description of a backup set that you want to query.
Supported Clients
This option is valid for all UNIX clients.
Syntax
>>-DEScription- description------------------------------------><
Parameters
If you use the archive command to archive more than one file, the description you enter applies to each file. For example, to archive a group of files and assign the same description, Project X, to each file, you would enter:
dsmc archive -description="Project X" "/home/ allproj/.*"
You can then use the description to retrieve all of the files.
Examples
dsmc archive "/home/foo/*.prj" -des="2002 Budget for Proj 1"
