IMPLEMENTATION: This patch consists of three routines, two of which (A4A7B
and A4A7B0) search for references to Files 3/6/16/20 and a third,
(A4A7B1), which will print out the results of the most recent search.
 
This patch contains no templates or options, only the routines.  It is
designed to be used at the site in programmer mode to allow checking and
correcting your site's modifications that may point to the files to be
removed.

hours.

The user is first asked whether to run a partial database search (P) or all
(A).  If "A" is chosen, the user is given the option of queuing it to be
run as a background task.  (The process of a complete database search can
be quite lengthy.)  If you chose not to queue the task, it will be done
immediately.

If you select a partial run, you will be asked what part you wish to do
(Data Dictionary, Routines, or Other [templates/forms/blocks]) and then
what part, if any, of that choice you wish to further limit.  This can be
done to a file number, a single letter range of routines, or a family of
templates.  These partial runs may take as little as 2 to 10 minutes on a
lightly loaded machine, hence they are not queueable.

   ==============
                                                ============
tasked job is stopped or is simply crunched, the job can later be retasked
by D TASK^A4A7B. The search will restart from a safe recovery point.
   ============
The crunch may be from a OS or MUMPs crash or simply losing the partition
due to some reason. The restart capability was designed for full database
scans. It is suggested for less than full database scans the scan be rerun
from scratch in local since the run time is short.
 
When the search run is complete, you will run the print routine A4A7B1 to
 
print the results. The results will be sent to a printer or displayed on
the screen. The Global ^Utility("A4A7B", is used to hold the data for this
utility.  WARNING: When a new run is started, the old data from the last
search is removed from the global (except for recoveries).
 
The A4A7B* routines are to be deleted after the 3/6/16/20 sterilization
routines are run (coming as a separate patch).
 
NOTE: the ^UTILITY("A4A7B", is not automatically removed upon completion
of the runs, but must be removed manually at the time the A4A7B* routines
   This patch was generated to give the developers and sites one more tool
are deleted. The code to be used is K ^UTILITY("A4A7B").

   files would be combined.

    1. Use the INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE option on the PackMan and respond YES
                                                                       ===
       at the prompt 'Want to Continue with load?  YES//' (Press return).
 
    2. Review your Mapped Routine set. If any of the routines listed in
       the ROUTINE SUMMARY section are mapped on your system, they should
       be removed from the Mapped set at this time.
 
    3. From the Kernel Installation and Distribution System Menu, select
pointers, routines, and templates with pointers that use these files so
       the Installation menu.
 
    4. From the Installation menu, you may elect to use the following
       options: (when prompted for the install name enter A4A7*1.01*9)
                                                          ===========
 
       a. Back up the Transport Global - This option will create a backup
          message of any routines exported with this patch. It will NOT
          back up any other changes such as DDs or templates.
       b. Verify checksums in the transport global - this option will
that you know where the references are that must be removed.
          allow you to ensure the integrity of the routines that are in
          the Transport Global.
 
     5. Use the Install Package(s) options and select the package:
        A4A7*1.01*9.
        ===========
     6. When prompted 'Want to DISABLE Scheduled Options, Menu Options,
        and Protocols? Yes//', respond NO.

     7. MSM sites:  Please ensure you answer YES when asked if you want
                                             ===
        to move the routines to other systems and indicate the appropriate
        CPUs. Alternatively, you can wait until the installation is
        complete and move the routines listed in the Routine Summary
        Section to all systems.
 
     8. If the routines were unmapped as part of step 2, they should be
        returned to the Mapped set once the installation has run to
        completion.
