RDF System Management Manual for J-series and H-series RVUs (RDF 1.10)
RDF State Requirement
You can enter the FC command at any time, whether or not RDF has been started.
Usage Guidelines
When you issue an FC command, the requested command appears, followed by a subcommand
prompt (.). At the prompt, you can enter the subcommands R, I, or D to respectively replace, insert,
or delete characters in the command line. As a simpler alternative to the R subcommand, you can
simply enter the replacement character directly under the character you want to replace.
When you enter the ? or ! character instead of the keyword FC, the requested command appears
but you are not prompted for subcommands to change it; use the ? or ! when you only want to
display the command, not change it.
The FC command is a standard feature of many HP software products. For more information about
how to use this command, see the TACL Reference Manual.
Examples
Suppose you enter the INFO MONITOR command, but mistype the second character in MONITOR
and receive an error message as a result:
]INFO MINITOR
Expecting: RDF, MONITOR, EXTRACTOR, RECEIVER, PURGER, IMAGETRAIL
Or: NETWORK, RDFNET, TRIGGER, VOLUME, "*" or a Volume name
]
You can correct this mistake by entering the FC command, which redisplays the INFO MONITOR
command as you erroneously entered it, followed by a prompt for your R, I, or D subcommand or
replacement character:
]FC
]INFO MINITOR
.
To correct the entry, following the subcommand prompt, enter the replacement character O under
the incorrect letter (I) that appears on the previous line, and then press the Return key (or its
equivalent) to transmit the correction:
]INFO MINITOR
. O
RDF now displays the corrected INFO MONITOR command followed by another prompt that asks
for any further corrections. Because you have no further changes, you press the Return key after
the subcommand prompt. Now, RDFCOM processes the INFO MONITOR command, this time
successfully.
]INFO MONITOR
.
MONITOR CPUS 0:1
MONITOR PRIORITY 170
MONITOR PROCESS $MON
]
On the next line, suppose you inadvertently enter an extra character in the SHOW RDF command:
]SHOW RDDF
Expecting: RDF, MONITOR, EXTRACTOR, RECEIVER, PURGER, IMAGETRAIL
Or: NETWORK, RDFNET, TRIGGER, or VOLUME
]
You correct this entry by entering the FC command followed by the D (for delete) subcommand
under the extra character displayed:
]FC
]SHOW RDDF
. D
]SHOW RDF
