PATCH CHECK — VMS 4.6

Verifies the application of the patches associated with a given ECO level.

ECONOT ECO

ECO

     Use CHECK ECO to verify that the patches represented  by  one  or
     more  ECO  levels  have been applied to the image file.  Remember
     that an ECO  level  is  not  applied  until  the  patch  that  it
     represents  is terminated by the UPDATE command.  For example, if
     you  define  an  ECO  level  with  the  SET  ECO  command,   then
     immediately  check to see whether the ECO level is applied, PATCH
     returns an error message indicating that the  ECO  level  is  not
     applied.

     When you issue the CHECK ECO command, you do not have to list all
     the ECO levels that have been applied to a particular image file.
     However, specifying one or more ECO levels  that  have  not  been
     applied will produce an error message.

Format:

     CHECK ECO eco-level [:eco-level] [,...]

Prompts:

        ECO> eco-level

Parameters

Parameters

eco-level
     Indicates one or more ECO levels that  have  been  applied.   ECO
     levels can be entered in:

          o  Comma-separated lists

          o  Colon-separated ranges

     Both comma-separated lists  and  colon-separated  ranges  can  be
     specified  on  the  initial  command line.  However, only one ECO
     level or one range of ECO levels can be entered in response to an
     ECO level prompt (ECO>).

NOT ECO

     Use CHECK NOT ECO to check  that  one  or  more  ECO  levels  are
     available for use in a particular image file.

     The CHECK NOT ECO command  is  the  negation  of  the  CHECK  ECO
     command.   It  too can be used to confirm that a particular patch
     has been applied to an image file.  Typically, however, the CHECK
     NOT  ECO  command  is  used  to  confirm  the ECO levels that are
     available for use in the current image file.

Format:

     CHECK NOT ECO eco-level [:eco-level] [,...]

Prompts:

        ECO> eco-level

     Both comma-separated lists  and  colon-separated  ranges  can  be
     entered  on  the initial command.  However, only one ECO level or
     one range of ECO levels can be entered  in  response  to  an  ECO
     level prompt (ECO>).
