Example
This example shows the logon information and the lists of
which node Y is a member. The information
displayed shows that node Y is
a member of LIST1 and no commands
or programs are being executed on this node (no session is established).
Y Connection is closed Login Data: OPERATOR.SYS Dsline = Y Node is on lists: LIST1 |
Configuring for Command Broadcast |
|
You may group nodes in the network in various combinations.
By grouping nodes and assigning each group to a list, you can "broadcast"
to all nodes on the list by issuing a command referencing that list
name.
To configure nodes for command broadcast, use the following
commands:
NEWLIST to first
create a list.
ALTLIST to add nodes to or delete
nodes from a list
PURGELIST to delete a list and
all its nodes.
You can then use the SHOWLIST command to
1) display all the nodes belonging to a list, 2) check whether you
correctly added a particular node to or deleted a node from a list,
3) verify whether a list is deleted, or 4) display all lists. Refer
to the commands on the following pages for more specific details.
When you broadcast or execute a command on a list, you execute
the command sequentially on each node on the list. If a node is
down, execution will continue to the next node on the list.
Using our sample LAN (Figure 8-2 “Sample Internetwork”),
we will create for NET3 three lists
identified as LIST1, LIST2,
and ALLNODES with different nodes
assigned to each list. First, we must use the NEWLIST
command to create and assign a name to each list.
NetCI>NEWLIST LIST1 NetCI>NEWLIST LIST2 NetCI>NEWLIST ALLNODES |
Next we will use the ALTLIST command to
assign nodes to each list.
NetCI>ALTLIST ADD LIST1 K,I,H NetCI>ALTLIST ADD LIST2 K,L,H NetCI>ALTLIST ADD ALLNODES K,Y,I,L,H |
The first list, named LIST1,
will have three members, nodes K,
I, and H.
The second list, named LIST2, will
also have three members, nodes K,
L, and H.
The third list, named ALLNODES,
will have five members, nodes K,
Y, I,
L, and H.
We will now use the SHOWLIST command to verify
that we correctly added or assigned the nodes to each list.
NetCI>SHOWLIST @ LIST1 Nodes on list: H I K LIST2 Nodes on list: H L K ALLNODES Nodes on list: H L I Y K |
