Parameters
hostid An alphanumeric name which identifies a host
machine. MRJE uses only the first character of the
name in its message to users.
START Used to open the communications line in an orderly
fashion.
SIGNOFF Used to close the communications line in an orderly
fashion.
KILL Immediately disconnects the link to the system.
Should be used in emergencies only, as error-free
recovery is not certain.
RETRIES Used to regulate the number of times MRJE will
repeat a failed attempt to receive a block of data
from the host.
retryum An integer 1 to 255, inclusive. Used by the
RETRIES command.
CHECK Prints a matrix of all MRJE modules and their
internal fix levels.
TRACE, ON Activates the CS/3000 TRACE facility to provide a
record of communications activity.
ALL Generates trace records for all line activity.
Default. Records are written only for transmission
errors.
mask An octal number preceded by a percent sign (%nn).
Used to select type of trace entries generated.
Refer to MRJE/3000 Reference Manual for an
explanation of the mask bits. Default is 37%, (all
except STN).
numentries Decimal integer for the maximum number of entries
in a trace record; maximum of 248. Default is 24.
WRAP Causes trace entries that overflow the trace record
(that exceeds "numentries") to overlay the first
entry written to that record.
filename Name of file where trace records are to be written.
Default is MRJETRCh.PUB.SYS, (where "h" is the
first character of the "hostid".)
TRACE, OFF Deactivates TRACE facility.
Operation Notes
Unless MRJECONTROL is issued from the master console, users are granted
access only if they are allowed to use the command (this happens with the
ALLOW command). You can open and close the MRJE/3000 communications link
with one or more hosts, change the number of transmission error retries,
turn on the CS/3000 TRACE diagnostic, and check the internal fix levels
of all the MRJE modules.
Examples
To open the MRJE line and trace transmission errors, enter:
MRJECONTROL START,B;TRACE ON
The letter "B" is the host identification (hostid).
To close down the MRJE line, enter:
MRJECONTROL SIGNOFF
