Performing System Management Tasks: HP 3000 MPE/iX Computer Systems > Chapter 5 Changing System Libraries, Programs, and Message Catalogs
Using the SYSFILE Configurator |
|
Use the SYSFILE configurator to display current information about system libraries, system programs, and the system message catalog and to make changes to the file system information. You make all changes to system files from within the SYSFILE configurator, which is one of the SYSGEN modules. To access the SYSFILE configurator, do the following:
When you first enter the SYSFILE configurator, you will see a list of the commands available to you. To issue a command, either enter the full command name or the abbreviation shown in parentheses. Figure 5-1 Example 4-1. Activating the SYSFILE Configurator
You use most of the SYSFILE configurator commands to add, delete, replace, list, or specify eight system file objects. Table 5-1 summarizes these actions. It lists the objects from top to bottom and shows the corresponding actions from left to right. Table 5-1 SYSFILE Configurator Command Matrix
You can display helpful information about any of the SYSFILE configurator commands on the screen. To do so, enter the HELP command at the sysfile> prompt in one of two forms:
Use the SHOW command (abbreviated SH) to display current file information. The syntax of the SHOW command is: SHOW (SH) [[FILE =] { AUTO BOOT CATALOG CMSL DCC IPL NMLIB SPROG ALL }] [ [DEST =] OFFLINE ]
To display information about one or all system file objects, at the sysfile> prompt, enter:
For example, to list current file information for the native mode library, enter:
To show current information for all objects you control with the SYSFILE configurator including system libraries, programs, and the message catalog, enter:
Or you can enter:
Use the add commands (AAUTO, ABOOT, ACMSL, and ASPROG) to add objects to the list of files dumped onto the system load tape (SLT). The commands are summarized below and explained in the remainder of this section.
Use the AAUTO command (abbreviated AA) to add an autoboot file to the list of files dumped onto the system load tape. Your system can have only one disk autoboot file (known as AUTOBOOT.MPEXL.SYS) and one tape autoboot file (known as TAPEAUTO.MPEXL.SYS). However, neither is required. The syntax of the AAUTO command is: AAUTO (AA) { [FILE =] autobootfilename} [[TYPE =] { DISC TAPE BOTH }]
For example, to add the autoboot file IOMAP2.UTIL.SYS, which is both a disk and tape file, enter:
Use the ABOOT command (abbreviated AB) to add a boot image to the system file configuration. The syntax of the command is: ABOOT (AB) { [IMAGE =] bootimagename} { [FILE =] filename } {[TYPE =] { DISC TAPE BOTH }}
For example, to add file information for the boot image ISL.MPEXL.SYS, enter:
Use the ACMSL command (abbreviated AC) to add a segment to the compatibility mode segmented library (CMSL). The syntax of the command is: ACMSL (AC) { [SEG =] segmentname} { [FILE =] filename} [[MODE =] { P S C U }]
For example, to add the new segment name SDCUTIL1 to the CMSL as a regular user segment, enter:
Use the ASPROG command (abbreviated AS) to add a system program or other file to the list of files to be saved on tape. The syntax of the command is: ASPROG (AS) { [PROG =] program name } { [FILE =] filename}
For example, to add FCOPY.PUB.SYS to the system load tape, using the same name, enter:
Use the delete commands (DAUTO, DBOOT, DCMSL, and DSPROG) to delete objects from the list of files dumped to the system load tape. The commands are summarized below and explained in the remainder of this section.
Use the DAUTO command (abbreviated DA) to delete the specified autoboot type from the list of files dumped onto the system load tape. The syntax of the command is: DAUTO {[TYPE =] { DISC TAPE BOTH }}
For example, to delete type TAPE, enter:
Use the DBOOT command (abbreviated DB) to delete a boot image file name. The syntax of the command is: DBOOT (DB) { [IMAGE =] [bootimagename] [, ... ]} IMAGE is a repeated parameter that you use to specify one or more boot images to delete. If you enter a boot image name that does not exist, you will get a warning. (To display a list of valid boot image file names, use the SHOW command.) For example, to remove the image file SAT.MPEXL.SYS, enter:
Use the DCMSL command (abbreviated DC) to delete segments from the compatibility mode segmented library (CMSL). The syntax of the command is: DCMSL (DC) { [SEG =] [segmentname] [,...]} SEG is a repeated parameter that you use to specify one or more segments currently in the CMSL. If you enter the name of a segment that doesn't exist, you will get an error. (To list the contents of the CMSL, use the LCMSL command.) For example, to delete the segments SDCUTIL5 and SDCUTIL6 from the system load tape, enter:
Use the DSPROG command (abbreviated DS) to delete system programs or files from the system configuration. The syntax of the command is: DSPROG has the following parameter: DSPROG (DS) { [PROG =] [programname] [,...]} PROG is a repeated parameter that you use to specify one or more the system programs to delete. If you enter a program name that doesn't exist, you will get an error. (To see what program names are currently in use, use the SHOW SPROG command.) For example to remove FCOPY.PUB.SYS from the system configuration, enter:
Use the replace commands (RAUTO, RBOOT, RCAT, RCMSL, RDCC, RIPL, RNMLIB, and RSPROG) to replace or modify information in the list files dumped to the system load tape. The commands are summarized below and explained in the following sections.
Use the RAUTO command (abbreviated RA) to replace an existing autoboot image in the list of files dumped to the system load tape. The syntax of the command is: RAUTO (RA) { [FILE =] autobootfilename} {[TYPE =] { DISC TAPE BOTH }}
To display the autoboot image file names maintained by the system, use the SHOW command. To replace a file, select one from the list. For example, to replace the autoboot image file AIMAGE.MPEXL.SYS, enter:
Use the RBOOT command (abbreviated RB) to modify the boot type of an existing boot image file name or to replace the boot image file name with another boot image file name. The syntax of the command is: RBOOT (RB) { [IMAGE =] bootimagename} { [FILE =] filename } {[TYPE =] { DISC TAPE BOTH }}
To display the boot image file names maintained by the system, use the SHOW command. To replace a file, select it from the list. For example, to modify the file START.MPEXL.SYS, enter:
The system message catalog contains all the system and subsystem messages and is kept in a file named CATALOG.PUB.SYS. Use the RCAT command (abbreviated RC) to specify which message catalog you want used on the system. The syntax of the command is: RCAT (RC) { [NAME =] filename} If you do not enter the group and account name as part of the filename parameter, it defaults the current group and account. (If you then run SYSGEN from a different group and account to create the system load tape, SYSGEN will not be able to find the files.) If you specify a message catalog file that has not been created, you will get an error. For example, to replace the default catalog name CATALOG.PUB.SYS with the new catalog STARCAT.PUB.SYS, enter:
Use the RCMSL command (abbreviated RCM) to replace a segment in the CMSL. The syntax of the command is: RCMSL (RCM) { [SEG =] segmentname} { [FILE =] filename} [ MODE = { P S C U } ]
To display the segments maintained in the CMSL, use the LCMSL command. To replace a segment, select one from the list. For example, to replace the regular user segment SDCUTIL1, enter:
Use the RDCC command (abbreviated RD) to specify a new or replacement network configuration file and to check for conflicts between the network configuration and SYSGEN's I/O configuration. The syntax of the RDCC command is: RDCC (RD) { [FILE =] filename } If you do not enter a fully qualified file name, it defaults to the current group and account. If you do not enter the FILE parameter, SYSGEN uses the default network configuration file NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS. To add the network configuration file information to the current SYSGEN configuration and cross validate, do the following:
Use the RIPL command (abbreviated RI) to replace an existing IPL image in the list of files dumped onto the system load tape. There can be only one disk and one tape IPL, each of which is replaced by its image name. Both IPL files must reside on the tape. The syntax of the command is: RIPL (RI) { [IMAGE =] imagename} { [FILE =] filename}
For example, to replace the image ISL2.MPEXL.SYS, enter:
Use the RNMLIB command (abbreviated RN) to replace the system native mode library in NL.PUB.SYS. The syntax of the RNMLIB command is: RNMLIB (RN) { [FILE =] filename} If you do not enter the group and account name as part of the filename parameter, it defaults the current group and account. (If you then run SYSGEN from a different group and account to create the system load tape, SYSGEN will not be able to find the files.) For example, to replace NL.PUB.SYS with MYNL.PUB.SYS, enter:
Use the RSPROG command (abbreviated RS) to replace an existing system program. The syntax of the command is: RSPROG (RS) { [PROG =] programname} { [FILE =] filename}
For example, to replace the file JOB in the PUB group of the SYS account with a program of the same name, enter:
Use the CMSL command (abbreviated CM) to specify the segmented library file you want used as the compatibility mode segmented library (CMSL). The syntax of the CMSL command is: CMSL (CM) { [SL =] slname} If you do not enter the group and account name as part of the slname parameter, it defaults to the current group and account. (If you then run SYSGEN from a different group and account to create the system load tape, SYSGEN will not be able to find the file.) If you do not specify a segmented library, SYSGEN uses the default SL.PUB.SYS. For example, To change the default SL.PUB.SYS to NEWSL.PUB.SYS, enter:
Use the LCMSL command (abbreviated LCMSL) to list the contents of the compatability mode segemented library (CMSL) or a single segment in the CMSL. The syntax of the LCMSL command is: LCMSL (LC) { [SEG =] segmentname} The segmentname parameter specifies the name of the segment you want to review. If you don't specify a segment, SYSGEN lists the entire contents of the CMSL. For example, to list the contents of the segment IPCSEG, enter:
