To start up a new current accounting file, use the following
command:
$SET ACCOUNTING/NEW_FILE
This closes the current accounting file and opens a new version
of it.
If the system encounters an error when trying to write information
to the current accounting file, it automatically closes the file
and opens a new version of it.
This example closes the current accounting file, opens a new
version of it, and changes the name of the old file to WEEK_24_RESOURCES.DAT. You can retain this file as a record of the resources
used in that week.
$ SET ACCOUNTING/NEW_FILE$ RENAME SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT;-1 WEEK_24_RESOURCES.DAT
