The command for the SYSGEN utility is SYSGEN. SYSGEN has
four positional parameters:
SYSGEN [ basegroup]
[ ,newgroup ]
[ ,inputfile ]
[ ,outputfile ]
|
The basegroup parameter specifies the group in the
SYS account that contains the configuration data file
set to be used or changed. The default base group is the
group used to boot the system (usually CONFIG). The
default base group is the group specified in the initial
system load (ISL) START command line. (For information
on specifying configuration groups during START, refer
to Chapter 3 “System Startup Functions”.)
If you attempt to specify a nonexistent group using the
BASEGROUP command, SYSGEN issues the following message:
**error** group groupname does not exist
|
The newgroup parameter specifies the group used to store
data. If you do not
specify newgroup, SYSGEN stores any configuration
changes in the base group by default.
If the group specified by newgroup already exists,
SYSGEN asks, at keep time, whether or not it should
overwrite that group with new information. At keep time, if
the user does a KEEP with no parameters, SYSGEN keeps
the current base group unless newgroup was specified, in
which case the group given is used. More information on
using the KEEP command is provided later in this
chapter.
The inputfile parameter specifies the file designator of
the file for command
input. The formal file designator is SYSGIN. The
default is $STDINX.
The outputfile parameter specifies the file designator
of the file for SYSGEN output. The formal file designator
is SYSGOUT. The
default is $STDLIST.
When using parameters with the SYSGEN command, place
them immediately following the command:
:SYSGEN[basegroup][,newgroup][,inputfile]
[,outputfile]
|
When using parameters with RUN SYSGEN.PUB.SYS, you must
specify them in the phrase INFO=" ":
RUN SYSGEN.PUB.SYS;INFO=
"[basegroup][,newgroup]&
[,inputfile][,outputfile]"
|
Example 4-1 illustrates activating SYSGEN's global module.
Activate the SYSGEN global module by entering the command
SYSGEN or by entering RUN SYSGEN.PUB.SYS.
