When altering or viewing a configuration through SYSGEN, you must first select
the configuration group for the operation. Select this basegroup by using the
basegroup parameter or the BASEGROUP command.
You can specify the group only from the global module in SYSGEN, but you can
accomplish this in two ways. You can use the basegroup optional
parameter in the SYSGEN command line:
Also, you can enter the SYSGEN global module and use the first-level command
BASEGROUP:
sysgen>BASEGROUP groupname
The syntax for the BASEGROUP command (abbreviated BA) is:
BASEGROUP [ [NAME=] groupname]
The groupname parameter is a string of up to eight characters.
For example, to use BASEGROUP, enter the command and its parameter as
shown:
sysgen>BASEGROUP CONFG935
or
sysgen>BA MYCONFIG
BA switches you to a different configuration group. (List configuration
information through the LIST and SHOW commands of the various
configurators.)
If you specify a nonexistent group, SYSGEN issues an error message:
sysgen>BASEGROUP FEUDAL
**error** group "FEUDAL" does not exist
sysgen>
