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>
