PATCH CHECK — VMS 5.5
Verifies the application of the patches associated with a given ECO level.
Additional information available:
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
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
