Return code for mminfo and nsrmm

[bertieuk]

I have a working wsh script to expire my savesets on disk only without touching my tape clones. I need to add some error checking on mminfo an nsrmm by looking at the return codes from the commands.

Does anyone know or have reference to these codes.

Thanks si

Don't count on getting any sensible return codes from either of these programs, they're not that well written. You would be better advised to parse the messages that are produced on stdout and stderr.

I'm saying that these binaries don't return any useful exit codes because they're not particularly well written. Sometimes they return a zero exit code even when it is patently obvious from the message that it didn't do what you expected.
