EXCHANGE

Function

EXCHANGE replaces a current DB by a non-current DB.

Description

EXCHANGE replaces a current DB by a non-current DB. The DB names do not need to be listed in a particular order, since the MDB knows which are current and which are non-current, but they must be paired correctly if more than two names are listed.

Examples

Assume that an MDB contains the following DBs as shown by a LIST command:

/DESIGN
Current DBS:   PIPING/PIPING-A    PIPING/PIPING-C    MASTER/CATA-D 
Deferred DBS:  PIPING/PIPING-B    MASTER/PIPING-E

The command

EXCHANGE PIPING/PIPING-A PIPING/PIPING-B MASTER/PIPING-E MASTER/CATA-D

would result in the new configuration

/DESIGN 
Current DBS:    PIPING/PIPING-B   PIPING/PIPING-C    MASTER/PIPING-E 
Deferred DBS:   PIPING/PIPING-A   MASTER/CATA-D
