SHOWNODE
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.
Sample LAN
Using our sample LAN (Figure 8-2), 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.
