Using COUP
Example 2: Defining and Adding a 3216 Controller
You can use COUP to define and add a 3216 controller to your system after you install
the controller. The following example defines and adds a 3216 controller (TAPEA)
configured between processors 0 and 1 at subchannel address %040.
The following are notes about this example:
•
The ASSUME command sets the object type so you don’t have to specify it in each
command that follows.
•
The SET commands define the attributes that you would define in the
CONTROLLERS paragraph of the CONFTEXT file.
•
The ADD command names the object you have defined (the 3216 tape controller)
and adds it to the configuration file.
