Table 5-1 "NMMGR Maintenance Mode Commands" lists the NMMGR maintenance mode commands and the actions they perform. Each of these commands is described in detail later in this chapter.

Table 5-1 NMMGR Maintenance Mode Commands

Command	Action
:MPECommand	Executes MPECommand. MPECommand must be a programmatically executable MPE command.
ADDCONF	Adds subtree of empty records to the configuration file.
ADDLDEV	Adds LDEVs to a DTC card.
ADDLU	Adds LUs to the SNA node transport screen.
ADDNODE	Adds or updates a node in the current network directory.
ADDVC	Adds a virtual circuit address key to the network directory and to the configuration file.
CARDCONF	Sets the current DTC card number for the READALLCONF, READCONF, UPDATECONF, and WRITECONF commands.
COMPRESSCONF	Compresses or expands the current configuration file.
CONTINUE	Prevents NMMGR from terminating in a job because of a maintenance mode error
COPYCONF	Copies a configuration subtree.
DELETECONF	Deletes a subtree from the current configuration file.
DELETENODE	Deletes an entry from the network directory.
EXIT	Exits from maintenance mode.
EXITVALIDATE	Validates a subsystem's configuration, if needed, when exiting from NMMGR.
EXITWARN	Warns the user that a subsystem needs to be validated before exiting NMMGR.
EXPANDDIR	Increases the capacity of a network directory file.
HELP	Calls up the help function.
LISTDIR	Lists the contents of a network directory.
LISTLDEV	Lists LDEVs for a DTC card in a format compatible with ADDLDEV.
LISTLU	Lists LUs in a format compatible with ADDLU.
MAKESTREAM	Creates a job stream used to perform network directory or configuration file updates on remote nodes.
MERGEDIR	Merges entries from another network directory or configuration file into the current network directory.
NICONF	Sets up paths to add or update NETXPORT NI configurations.
OPENCONF	Opens a nodal configuration file and makes it the current configuration file.
OPENDIR	Opens a network directory file and makes it the current directory.
PAGECONF	Sets the page number for multipage data screens.
PASSWORD	Sets the password. Validates the NETXPORT subsystem configuration. Changes the password to allow write access on the OPEN screen.
PATHCONF	Sets the current path in the current configuration file.
PURGECONF	Deletes the subtrees of records from the configuration file.
PURGELDEV	Purges LDEVs from the DTC card.
PURGELU	Purges LUs from the SNA node transport screen
PURGENI	Purges a network interface from the configuration file and performs cleanup.
PURGEVC	Deletes a virtual circuit address key from the network directory and the configuration file.
READALLCONF	Reads all data from the current configuration record.
READCONF	Reads selected data from the current configuration record.
SUMMARYCONF	Prints a report for one or more communications subsystems.
UPDATECONF	Updates the current path in the configuration file.
VALIDATECONF	Validates subsystem configuration.
VERSIONCONF	Checks whether the specified version number matches NMMGR's current version number.
WRITECONF	Writes data to individual fields of the current path in the configuration file.

NOTE: Subsystem break ([CTRL]Y) may be used to interrupt the operation of the COPYCONF, DELETENODE, HELP, LISTDIR, MAKESTREAM and MERGEDIR commands. The EXPANDDIR command cannot be interrupted.

The VERSIONCONF command must be used before the PATHCONF command, which must be used before the READCONF, READALLCONF, WRITECONF, and UPDATECONF commands to define the current path.
