Dynamically implements DTS changes made in NMMGR. Initiates automatic configuration of DTCs. Shuts down and restarts the DTS subsystem. Starts, stops, and controls the operation of host-based X.25 connections. See the following sections for further information on each of the following functions. See the Configuring Systems for Terminals, Printers, and Other Serial Devices manual for additional information on the functions that are not X.25 or PAD operations.

Syntax

DTCCNTRL { DTC=dtcname; FUNC=function; CARD=cardnum} [ ;FORCED=foption]

Parameters

DTC=dtcname

Required if FUNC is one of STARTX25, STARTPADSUP, STARTBOTH, STOPX25, STOPPADSUP, STOPBOTH, or STATUS. The DTC node name of the DTC on which the operation is to be performed, in the form:

name[.domain][.organization]

If the domain or organization are not provided, the domain and organization of the local node will be assumed as the default.

FUNC=function

Optional. The function to be performed. If this parameter is omitted, DTCCNTRL will display the menu shown below. The desired function can then be selected from the menu.

The available functions are:

DCSTATUS

Displays the result of the last time DTS dynamic configuration was invoked.

DYNCONF

Dynamically implement DTS changes made in NMMGR.

AUTOCONF

Initiate automatic configuration of a new DTC.

SHUTDOWN

Shutdown the DTS subsystem and release all DTS system resources.

RESTART

Startup the DTS subsystem. DTS must be shut down first.

STARTX25

Activates X.25 services on the specified card.

STARTPADSUP

Activates PAD support services on the specified card. X.25 services must already be active.

STARTBOTH

Activates both X.25 and PAD support services on the specified card.

STOPX25

Deactivates X.25 services on the specified card. If PAD support services are active, they must be deactivated prior to entering this command.

STOPPADSUP

Deactivates PAD support services on the specified card. X.25 services remain active.

STOPBOTH

Deactivates both X.25 and PAD support services on the specified card.

STATUS

Displays information about the DTC, including type (16, 48 or 72MX), X.25 cards, and whether X.25 or PAD support is active on the cards.

CARD=cardnum

Required if FUNC is one of STARTX25, STARTPADSUP, STARTBOTH, STOPX25, STOPPADSUP, or STOPBOTH. Specifies the X.25 card number on which the FUNC operation is to be performed.

FORCED=foption

Optional. If FUNC is SHUTDOWN specifies whether all active ldevs will be aborted. If FUNC is one of STARTX25, STARTPADSUP, STARTBOTH, STOPX25, STOPPADSUP or STOPBOTH. Specifies whether the operation will be performed even if another user is accessing the DTC Manager.

N

Default. If FUNC is SHUTDOWN, DTS shutdown is not attempted if there are active ldevs. If FUNC is a PAD or X.25 support service, the function is not performed if another user is accessing the DTC Manager.

Y

If FUNC is SHUTDOWN, causes all active ldevs to be aborted on DTS shutdown. For shutdown, this option can only be invoked from the command line. If FUNC is a X.25 or PAD support function forces the X.25 or PAD support function to occur even if another user is accessing the DTC Manager.
