TS/MP 2.5 System Management Manual
command, all Guardian file names subsequently defined without specified node name are
expanded with the \MARS node name.
If you issue the CMDVOL command again to assign the node \DALLAS, all subsequent Guardian
file names defined without specified node names are expanded, and stored in the PATHMON
configuration file, with the \DALLAS node name. Previous file names resolved with the \MARS
node are not changed.
• Setting the Pathway NODEINDEPENDENT attribute to ON overrides and disables the node
field of the CMDVOL command. If PATHWAY NODEINDEPENDENT is ON and you use
CMDVOL to specify a default node other than \*, you get error*2075* CMDVOL NODE
VALUE CONFLICTS WITH PATHWAY NODEINDEPENDENT ON. HP recommends that you
must not specify a node field with the CMDVOL command when the NODEINDEPENDENT
attribute is ON. For details on the NODEINDEPENDENT attribute of the SET PATHWAY
command, see “PATHMON Environment Control Commands” (page 150).
• The CMDVOL command is in effect only for the duration of the current PATHCOM session.
Thus, if the NODEINDEPENDENT attribute of the SET PATHWAY command is set to OFF and
you use CMDVOL to specify \* as the default node for file expansion, the \* default is in
effect only for the duration of your PATHCOM session. Table 12 (page 139) illustrates the effect
of different combinations of the CMDVOL command and the NODEINDEPENDENT attribute:

Examples
This sequential example show a default set with the CMDVOL command when the Pathway
NODEINDEPENDENT attribute is set to OFF. Note that parameters remain in effect until a new
CMDVOL command sets a new parameter.
