2  –  Arguments

2.1  –  area-id

    Specifies the number of the .rda or .snp file whose file
    specification you are changing in the .rdb file.

2.2  –  area-name

    Specifies the name of the .rda or .snp file whose file
    specification you are changing in the .rdb file.

2.3  –  SNAPSHOT

    Specifies that the file whose .rdb file fields you are changing
    is an .snp file.

2.4  –  SPECIFICATION

    SPECIFICATION = file-spec

    have. Use a full file specification (including version number) if

    Example 1

    The following example deposits a new file specification for the
    JOBS storage area file. The word (marked) in the DEPOSIT FILE
    display indicates that the JOBS storage area file is marked for
    the specified location.

    RdbALTER> DISPLAY FILE JOBS
    Area JOBS:
             File specification is: "DISK1:[RICK.RDB]JOBS.RDA;1"
             Corrupt flag is: OFF
             Inconsistent flag is: OFF

    RdbALTER> DEPOSIT FILE JOBS SPECIFICATION=DISK1:[RICK]JOBS.RDA;1
    Area JOBS:
    (marked) File specification is: "DISK1:[RICK]JOBS.RDA;1"

    See the Oracle Rdb Guide to Database Maintenance for more
    examples of how to use the DEPOSIT FILE command.
