Using Existing Object Attributes for New Objects
The resulting display appears in this format:
SERVER ANNA

DEBUG OFF
DEFINE =EMP, CLASS MAP, FILE \SYS.$D.APPL.EMP

MAXSERVERS 5
NUMSTATIC 2
OWNER \TS.8,8
PRI 134
PROGRAM \*.$BANK1.TEST.CHECK
SECURITY "N"
TMF ON
VOLUME \*.$BANK1.TESTING
In the above example, the generic node name \* specified for the HOMETERM,
PROGRAM, and VOLUME attribute values indicates that node name for these
attributes will default to the node where the PATHMON process is currently running.
In Capturing a Configuration you will see how the INFO command can be used to
create OBEYFORM files that contain all the definitions for your complete PATHMON
environment. These files can be used as a basis for starting operations.
Using Existing Object Attributes for New Objects
You can use object definitions recorded in the PATHMON configuration file as the basis
for defining values in the PATHCOM working set. For example, suppose that you want
to add a new SERVER object named JACK, using the same attributes that applied to
the SERVER named ANNA (except for the TMF attribute). You could do this by using
the SET command with the LIKE option, as follows:
= SET SERVER LIKE ANNA
= ADD SERVER JACK, TMF ON
The LIKE option requests PATHCOM to set the working-set values exactly the same as
those for the attributes of the object whose name follows LIKE. This feature is useful
for defining and adding multiple objects of the same kind with similar definitions. For
example, when specifying multiple SERVER objects, you need enter only those
attributes that are different from those of a previously added SERVER. Alternatively,
you can define a SERVER that is exactly like a previously added SERVER.
