Promoting Resources: Example 2

This example uses the /TEST parameter to preview what the Promote script will do. This script promotes all resources that have a status of Passed from the development library (MASTER.LBY) into the test library (TEST.LBY).

You first run the LBYPROC utility using the /TEST parameter so you can see a preview of what will be promoted. After running it with the /TEST parameter, remove this parameter and run the utility again to actually promote resources.

Resources in the source library (MASTER.LBY) that have a status of Passed are promoted to the target library (TEST.LBY). In the target library, these newly promoted resources are assigned a status of Test. Upon successful promotion, the resources in the source library that were promoted are assigned a status of Promoted.

If you run the utility with these parameters:

c:\fap\dll\dms1dm>lbyproc /i=deflib\pro2.lsc /test

You will get this output from the utility when running in Test mode:

Use a command similar to this one to actually promote the resources:

c:\fap\dll\dms1dm>lbyproc /i=deflib\pro2.lsc

You will get this output from the utility:
