Updates the outfence value of the NRJE workstation reader.

Syntax

RDRF[ENCE] ReaderOutFence[;W[SID]=Wsid]

Parameters

ReaderOutFence

Required. The output fence for the workstation reader. This is an integer from 1 through 14; however, note that you can specify 0 to use the system output fence, instead. If you do this, the ReaderOutFence value is changed to the value of the system output fence.

When an LU is configured to transmit the spooled file, any spooled file whose priority exceeds the value of ReaderOutFence is transmitted once the workstation is in communication with the host.

Wsid

The workstation name. This can be up to eight alphanumeric characters long; the first character must be alphabetic.

If you omit this parameter, the default workstation identifier is used. You can specify a default workstation identifier in the NRJE command.

Description

This command updates the outfence value of the NRJE workstation reader. You can specify a particular workstation by specifying a Wsid. This command is equivalent to the following MPE command for NRJE spool files:

:OUTFENCE ReaderOutFence;LDEV=ldev

You can influence the transmission of spooled files from the reader transmission queue to the host by varying ReaderOutFence. Any spooled file in the workstation's reader transmission queue with an output priority less than or equal to the value of ReaderOutFence is deferred until one of these events takes place:

  • The value of ReaderOutFence is lowered with a RDRFENCE command.

  • The value of ReaderOutFence is lowered with an OUTFENCE command for the NRJE workstation reader.

  • The priority of the reader spool file is raised to exceed the value of ReaderOutFence, by issuing an ALTER command or calling the NRJEAlter intrinsic.

Reader spool files, once created, are disposed of when one of these actions happens:

  • The spool file has been transmitted to the host system.

  • The spool file is deleted by issuing a CANCEL command or calling NRJECancel.

  • A SPOOLF;DELETE or DELETESPOOLFILE console command, or its SPOOK equivalent, is issued.

  • A cool start is used to recover from an HP 3000 system shutdown. This deletes all spool files.

Text Reference

NRJERdrFence is the manager intrinsic counterpart of this command; it is described in the SNA NRJE User/Programmer Reference Manual.
