Invokes the subsystem command interpreter. It is also an NRJE subsystem command and allows you to switch to a different default workstation.

Syntax

N[RJE] Wsid

Parameter

Wsid

Identifies a specific workstation you wish to use as a default. The Wsid parameter is an alphanumeric string that must begin with a letter and can be up to eight characters long.

You must use Wsid in an NRJE subsystem command; it is optional in an MPE command.

To specify another workstation within the subsystem you can

  • Use a different Wsid as a parameter in every command that affects a workstation.

  • Execute another NRJE command with a different Wsid to establish another default workstation.

Although the Wsid parameter is optional when you enter the NRJE subsystem from MPE, using the parameter is usually convenient, because it establishes a default Wsid and allows you to omit the Wsid parameter from all subsystem commands for that workstation.

You can always specify another Wsid value in other subsystem commands, or you can change the default Wsid by issuing another NRJE command.

Description

The NRJE command enables you to enter the NRJE subsystem from MPE or, when used as an SNA NRJE subsystem command, to change default workstations. When you issue the command from MPE, the SNA NRJE subsystem prints a banner line identifying the version of NRJE installed on your computer. You then receive the NRJE welcome message and a workstation prompt string. When you enter an NRJE command from the subsystem, you receive only the workstation prompt string.

If you enter an NRJE command from MPE, the Wsid parameter is optional; however, it is required if you issue the command within the NRJE subsystem. In either case, when you specify a Wsid in an NRJE command, you designate a default workstation for your NRJE session. A workstation specified in an NRJE command remains the default workstation for your NRJE session until you enter another NRJE command with its own Wsid.

When you establish a default workstation, you can utilize NRJE user and manager commands more efficiently. For example, the SUBMIT command contains an optional WSID=Wsid parameter. Once you have established a default workstation, you can issue a SUBMIT command for a workstation without appending a WSID=Wsid parameter. The subsystem defaults to the workstation specified in your last NRJE command.

NOTE: If you do not set up a default workstation, you must include the WSID=Wsid parameter in every command that includes that parameter.

After entering NRJE from MPE, you can set up a new default workstation by issuing an NRJE command with a Wsid. If you did not identify a Wsid in your initial NRJE command, your new NRJE command with the Wsid establishes the first default workstation for your session. If you did identify a Wsid in your initial NRJE command, your new NRJE command enables you to switch to a different default workstation.

You can designate a default workstation and then enter certain user or manager commands with a WSID=Wsid parameter. In this case, the subsystem executes the command for the workstation in the WSID=Wsid parameter. However, use of a WSID=Wsid parameter does not change the default workstation. If you then issue another command without the WSID=Wsid parameter, the subsystem executes that command for the default workstation. The following example illustrates switching from RMT11 as a default workstation to RMT99 as a default, and then back to RMT11. Remember that an EXIT command always returns control to the process that called the NRJE CI.

Example

: ...              You are logged on to MPE.
 
:NRJE RMT11        Enter NRJE with RMT11 as the default workstation.
 
product number version number NJRE (C) HEWLETT-PACKARD CO. copyright year
 
NRJE WELCOME       The NRJE WELCOME text is configured by an 
                   NRJE manager.
 
RMT11> ...         Execute NRJE commands with RMT11 as the default
                   workstation. The prompting string is configured 
                   in the NMMGR Workstation Data screen.
 
RMT11>NRJE RMT99   Switch to RMT99 as the default workstation.
 
RMT99> ...         Execute NRJE commands with RMT99 as the default.
 
RMT99>NRJE RMT11   Switch to RMT11 as the default workstation.
 
RMT11> ...         Execute some NRJE commands with RMT11 as the default
                   workstation.
 
RMT11>EXIT         Return control to MPE.
 
:  ...             Execute some MPE commands.

In the example above, you enter NRJE specifying RMT11 as the default workstation. After executing some commands, you switch the default workstation from RMT11 to RMT99, and then back to RMT11. Eventually, you return control to MPE.
