root-file-spec

 Specifies the full file specification (including version number)
 that the root file will have after it has been committed and the
 RdbALTER session is complete.

 After committing the changed root file name, the database cannot
 be  accessed  until you copy it to the location (using the exact
 fully qualified file specification)  that  you  specify  on  the
 DEPOSIT  ROOT command.  After that, users attach to the database
 at the new location.

 Example 1

 The following example enters a new file  specification  for  the
 root  file.   You  must specify a version number in the new file
 specification for the root file.  The  word  "(marked)"  in  the
 DEPOSIT  ROOT display indicates that root file is marked for the
 specified location but has not been moved to that location.

 RdbALTER> DISPLAY ROOT
          Root file specification is: "DISK1:[RICK.RDB]MF_PERSONNEL.RDB;1"
 RdbALTER> DEPOSIT ROOT SPECIFICATION="USER1:[RICK]MF_PERSONNEL.RDB;1"
 (marked) Root file specification is: "USER1:[RICK]MF_PERSONNEL.RDB;1"
