Displaying Current File Information 

The SHOW command (abbreviated SH) displays the file information currently
set through SYSFILE. SHOW has the following parameters:

     SHOW (SH)   [FILE =  AUTO    ]
                          [ BOOT    ]
                          [ CATALOG ]
                          [ CMSL    ]
                          [ DCC     ]
                          [ IPL     ]
                          [ NMLIB   ]
                          [ SPROG   ]
                          [ ALL     ]
                 [DEST =  OFFLINE ]

AUTO shows all the autoboot images.

BOOT shows all the boot images currently configured.

CATALOG shows the system catalog in use.

CMSL shows the CMSL (compatibility mode segmented library) in use.

DCC shows which file will be used for network configuration.

IPL shows the IPL images in use.

NMLIB shows the NM library names.

SPROG shows the specified system program names.

ALL shows all of the above information.

OFFLINE redirects the output of the SHOW command to SYSGEN's listing
file, SYSGLIST. Using OFFLINE does not immediately generate a printout.
The information is sent to SYSGLIST until you either enter the OCLOSE
command or exit SYSGEN. Exiting SYSGEN or using OCLOSE closes SYSGLIST
and prints the file.

To see current file information, enter the SHOW command and at least one
parameter:

     sysfile>SH NMLIB 

     NM LIB      = NL.PUB.SYS

To show all the current system file information for system libraries,
programs and the message catalog, enter SHOW ALL or SHOW:

          Example 8-5.  SYSFILE Configurator SHOW ALL Output (continued) 

The add commands (AAUTO, ABOOT, ACMSL, and ASPROG) add objects to the
list of files dumped onto SYSGEN's tape:

AAUTO adds an autoboot file to the list of files.

ABOOT adds a boot image to the list of files.

ACMSL adds a segment to a temporary copy of the CMSL, which SYSGEN
automatically manages.

ASPROG adds a system program or other file to the list of files.

Adding autoboot files 

The AAUTO command (abbreviated AA) adds an autoboot file to the list of
files dumped onto SYSGEN's tape.  The command has the following
parameters:

     AAUTO (AA)  [FILE     =]  autobootfilename 
                 [TYPE     =   DISC ]
                             [ TAPE ]
                             [ BOTH ]

FILE specifies the file name that contains autoboot commands.  If it is
not fully qualified with group and account name, it defaults to the
current group and account.  If the specified file does not exist, an
error occurs, and the system issues a message.


NOTE Always use fully qualified file names.
TYPE specifies the type of autoboot files to add. TYPE allows the following types: DISC Specifies that the file is applicable to a disk boot only. TAPE Specifies that the file is applicable to a tape boot only. BOTH Specifies that the file is applicable to both disk boot and tape boot. There can be only one disk and one tape autoboot file, although neither is required. The tape and disk autoboot files become TAPEAUTO.MPEXL.SYS and AUTOBOOT.MPEXL.SYS, respectively. Adding boot files The ABOOT command (abbreviated AB) adds a boot image to the system file configuration. The command has the following parameters: ABOOT (AB) [IMAGE =] bootimagename [FILE =] filename [TYPE = DISC ] [ TAPE ] [ BOTH ] IMAGE specifies the name of a boot image. If the specified boot image already exists, an error occurs. FILE adds the file name of the boot image. If the file name is not fully qualified, it defaults to the current group and account. If SYSGEN is run from a different group and account when the tape is made, unexpected results occur (for example, cannot find the specified files). If the file to be added does not exist, an error occurs. TYPE specifies the type of boot images to add. TYPE allows the following types: DISC Specifies that the file is applicable to a disk boot only. TAPE Specifies that the file is applicable to a tape boot only. BOTH Specifies that the file is applicable to both disk boot and tape boot. To add file information for the boot image, enter the ABOOT command, file name, and at least one parameter: sysfile>ABOOT START2.UTIL.SYS START2.UTIL.SYS TYPE=DISC Adding a segment to the compatibility mode segmented library (CMSL) The ACMSL command (abbreviated AC) adds a segment to the CMSL. The command has the following parameters: ACMSL (AC) [SEG =] segmentname [FILE =] filename [MODE = S ] [ C ] [ P ] [ U ] SEG specifies a new segment name with a maximum of eight characters. If an existing segmentname is specified, an error occurs. FILE specifies a file name to be added to the CMSL. The filename parameter can be fully qualified with group and account. If not, it defaults to the current group and account. If filename cannot be found, an error occurs. MODE indicates where the added SL segment is to reside. It expects one of the four options listed below. Other entries cause errors. P Declares a segment to be a permanently allocated user segment. This parameter performs the same function as the ALLOCATE command. S Declares a segment to be a permanently allocated system intrinsic segment (in virtual memory). C Declares a segment to be a core-resident system intrinsic segment. U Declares a segment to be a temporarily allocated user segment. Adding file names to dump to tape The ASPROG command (abbreviated AS) adds a system program or other file to the list of files to be saved on tape. The command has the following parameters: ASPROG (AS) [PROG =] program-name [FILE =] filename PROG expects a system program name. If the specified program-name already exists in the system program list, an error occurs. FILE expects a file name to be used as the system program. If it is not fully qualified with group and account name, it defaults to the current group and account. If the specified filename does not exist, an error occurs. To add a program to tape, enter the program and file name: sysfile>ASPROG FCOPY.PUB.SYS FCOPY.PUB.SYS
