Output Configuration File Screen 

The Output Configuration File screen shown in figure 4-2 allows you to
list or print the configuration file tree structure, to print the NMMGR
data screens associated with a configuration file, and to print a
critical summary of the configuration file data.  You reach this screen
by pressing [Go To OUTPUT] at the Utility screen.

Figure 4-2. Output Configuration File Screen By default, the printed output for each of this screen's print functions is sent directly to the line printer. You may want to redirect the output by issuing a file equation for the output file FORMLIST (the formal file designator of the output file). You can do so by entering the file equation in the command window of the screen. For example, you could type the following: :FILE FORMLIST;DEV=PP and then press [ENTER] If you then pressed [Print Data], the output would be sent to the device PP. If you wanted to send the output to a disk file, you could enter: :FILE FORMLIST;DEV=DISC;SAVE If you then pressed Print Data, the output would be stored on disk under the file name FORMLIST. Display Tree If you press the [Display Tree] key, NMMGR will display the tree structure of the configuration file at your terminal. Figure 4-3 shows a section of a listing obtained by pressing Display Tree at the Output Configuration File screen. The tree structure shows the identifiers for each screen that contains configured data but does not show any of the actual data that is configured. The level of each screen (how far down it is in the tree structure) is printed on the left, in square brackets. The listing shows the names of the screens and items configured, indented according to their level in the tree structure. This listing is useful for finding out which identifiers are already configured in a file. You can also refer to it for guidance in direct path branching. To generate a printout of the actual data screens, use the Print Data or thePrint Summary key to print just a listing of all the data. Both are described later in this chapter.

Figure 4-3. Display Tree Listing Print Tree The [Print Tree] key generates a printed listing of the tree structure as displayed by the Display Tree key (figure 4-3). By default, output is sent to the device LP. You can redirect the output by using a file equation for the formal file designator FORMLIST. Print Data The Print Data key generates a printed copy of the data screens associated with the configuration file. By default, output is sent to the device LP. You can redirect the output by using a file equation for the formal file designator FORMLIST. You can select the data screens you want to list by entering one or more selections in the print data subsystem selection fields on the Output Configuration File screen. These are four data entry fields that allow you to enter a number corresponding to the configurable subsystems, as listed on the screen (see figure 4-2). For example, to obtain a printed listing of the configured screens for both logging and for NETXPORT configuration, enter a 2 (for logging) in one of the fields and a 3 (for NETXPORT) in another of the fields. If these are the only screens you want printed, leave the other two fields blank. When you have made your selections, press the Print Data key. If you want all screens to print, enter a 0 in one of the selection fields (the default). Figure 4-4 is an example of a data screen as printed by the Print Data key. Because data has been entered for this screen in the configuration file, the actual data is shown and the data flag is set to Y. If no data had been entered, the printout would show the default values and the data flag would be set to N.

Figure 4-4. Print Data Output Example Print Summary The Print Summary key allows you to print all the configuration data for the chosen subsystem on the Output Configuration File menu. This is a listing of information that is contained in your configuration file. By default, output is sent to the device LP. You can redirect the output by using a file equation for the formal file designator FORMLIST. To print a critical summary, choose the number corresponding to the subsystem for which you want the report. Enter the number in the field to the right of "Print Summary" and press the Print Summary key. (The numbers for the subsystems are the same as those that you would use to select subsystems for the Print Data key.) The example shown in figure 4-5 is the first part of a critical summary for a full-gateway node that has been configured with a point-to-point (router) network interface (NI) and a LAN NI.

Sample Page of Critical Summary Report Print Subtree The Print Subtree key allows you to print the NMMGR data screens for a specified subtree. By default, output is sent to the device LP. You can redirect the output by using a file equation for the formal file designator FORMLIST. To define the subset of screens that you want to print, enter the path name of the topmost screen of the subtree you are selecting in the field provided under "Print Subtree." Press the Print Subtree key.
