migration program to make the necessary modifications to the
configuration file. For more information about the configuration file
format, see Chapter 3, “Configuring TN3270.
Running the Configuration Migration Program
To run the migration utility, use the following command:
tnmigrate [-c ]
oldfilename newfilename
The command contains the following parameters:
oldfilename
Name of the Release 4 text configuration file. Specify a
full path if it is not in the current directory. The
configuration migration program adds the filename
extension .txt if you do not specify it.
newfilename
Name of the Release 6 text configuration file to be
created. The configuration migration program creates
the file in the current directory if no path is specified
and adds the filename extension .txt if no filename
extension is specified.
-c
Specifies that the program should generate the Release
6 binary configuration file in addition to the text file.
The file is given the same name as the output text file
but with the extension .cfg instead of .txt. If you do
not use this option, you must use the tncfgtcp
program to create the binary configuration file. For
more information about the text and binary
configuration files and about converting between these
two file formats, see Chapter 3, “Configuring TN3270.
Changes Made by the Configuration Migration Program
The only record in the configuration file that the configuration migration
program modifies is the diagnostics record. The configuration
migration program modifies this record to remove the
audit_level
field
and to add the new
audit
and
exception
fields, if appropriate. The
settings of
audit
and
exception
are based on the value of
audit_level
