For further information about system procedure calls, see the Guardian Procedure
Calls Reference Manual. For information about how to issue these calls from the
language you are using, see that language’s reference manual.
TACL
The Tandem Advanced Command Language (TACL) provides the Guardian
environment’s command interface to the operating system. TACL features built-in
functions that can be used for constructing programmatic routines and macros.
Table 1-6 lists some of the functions that call operating system procedures for
performing TMF operations.
For further information about TACL built-in functions, see the TACL Reference Manual.
Measure Subsystem
The Measure performance analysis subsystem is used to collect performance
statistics on a wide range of system resources. With Measure, you can gather data
from system components, network components, and applications. Among these
elements, Measure allows you to obtain and display performance statistics for TMF.
See the Measure Reference Manual and the Measure User’s Guide for descriptions of
these statistics and the TMF entities to which they apply.
TMF Object Types
Like all subsystems that support DSM, TMF defines a set of object types—the types of
objects that can be managed by TMF. The object types for the TMFCOM interactive
interface are not exactly the same as those for the TMFSERVE programmatic
interface. The object types for the programmatic interface are as follows:
Table 1-6. TACL Built-In Functions

#BEGINTRANSACTION Invokes the BEGINTRANSACTION system procedure.
#COMPUTETRANSID Invokes the COMPUTETRANSID system procedure.
