I just came accross very curious behaviour of the rename command (MPE/ix
5.5 + PP7):
MPE XL:hello manager.sys
ENTER ACCOUNT (SYS) PASSWORD:
HP3000 Release: C.55.00 User Version: C.55.07 FRI, AUG 27, 1999, 9:26 PM
MPE/iX HP31900 C.05.08 Copyright Hewlett-Packard 1987. All rights reserved.
:newacct test,mgr
:build x.pub.test
:hello mgr.test
CPU=2. Connect=1. FRI, AUG 27, 1999, 9:26 PM.
HP3000 Release: C.55.00 User Version: C.55.07 FRI, AUG 27, 1999, 9:26 PM
MPE/iX HP31900 C.05.08 Copyright Hewlett-Packard 1987. All rights reserved.
:rename x,x/lock
USER IS NOT CREATOR (FSERR 94)
RENAME failed due to file system error. Not renamed. (CIERR 373)
:comment ok, makes sense, since i (mgr.test) am not creator of file x
:comment let's just make sure
:listf x,-3
