RDF System Management Manual for J-series and H-series RVUs (RDF 1.10)

A RDF Commands Quick Reference
The syntax rules for the RDFCOM and RDFSCAN commands, explained in detail in Chapter 8
(page 176) and Chapter 9 (page 250), are summarized in this appendix. This appendix, which is
written for system managers and operators, summarizes the syntax descriptions for:
• The command to run RDFCOM from the Guardian user interface to the NonStop operating
system. See “RDFCOM Run Syntax”.
• The RDFCOM commands, listed in alphabetical order, beginning with the ADD command.
See “RDFCOM Commands Quick Reference” (page 330)
• The RDFSCAN commands, listed in alphabetical order, beginning with the AT command. See
“RDFSCAN Commands Quick Reference” (page 337).
• The file names and process identifiers that are common parameters in many RDFCOM and
RDFSCAN commands. See “File Names and Process Identifiers” (page 339).
RDFCOM Run Syntax
RDFCOM runs under the Guardian user interface (normally the TACL command interpreter) to the
NonStop operating system. The RDFCOM command starts a session that lets you enter RDFCOM
commands interactively, noninteractively, or through a command file.
Where issued: primary or backup system.
Security: Any user.
RDFCOM [/[IN command-file ] [,OUT output-file ]/ ]
[control-subvolume] ; [command [; command ]...]
For more detailed information about RDFCOM commands, see Chapter 8 (page 176).
