DSNM Configuration Parameters
To start an I process for testing with DSNMCom (I process test utility), using site-
specific configuration parameters in $DSNM.NETW.DSNMCONF and I-process-
specific configuration parameters in $DSNM.IDEV.DSNMIDEV, use the
TESTMODE and CONFIG process parameters in an explicit RUN command. For
example:
RUN $DSNM.IDEV.SPIFI/NAME $SPFI,NOWAIT/TESTMODE 1, &
CONFIG $DSNM.NETW.DSNMCONF $DSNM.IDEV.DSNMIDEV
STARTUP { YES | NO }
specifies whether DSNM configuration parameters from the startup message are
allowed to override parameters stored in the DSNMCONF file(s). (This is the same
as the STARTUP [PARAMS] value in the $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.DSNM file.) The
STARTUP value is ignored if TESTMODE is not enabled. DSNM configuration
parameters are discussed in the next subsection.
DEBUG num
enables DEBUG calls as specified by num. DEBUG num sets the
Z^DEBUG^LEVEL field in the _PROCESS^PARAMS structure to num (see
“Accessing Standard Process Parameters: _PROCESS^PARAMS” on page 5-8). Its
purpose is to call DEBUG under various externally specified circumstances unique
to the particular process. The process developer decides what each value of num
means; there are no external standards for it. This parameter is ignored if
TESTMODE is not enabled.
DSNM Configuration Parameters
DSNM configuration parameters are site-specific parameters such as SWAPVOL; these
parameters are described in the Distributed Systems Management Solutions (DSMS)
System Management Guide.
DSNM-config-parameter may be accepted from the startup message if either:
•
STARTUP [PARAMS] is YES in the designated section of
$SYSTEM.SYSTEM.DSNM (in this case the DSNM-config-parameter
overrides or supplements the value of the corresponding parameter in the
DSNMCONF file).
•
The process is running in test mode (compiled with SETTOG 1) and the process
parameters TESTMODE 1 (or any nonzero value) and STARTUP YES are specified.
DSNM configuration parameters are separated from standard process parameters by a
semicolon (;).
Note. If STARTUP [PARAMS] is NO in the designated section of $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.DSNM,
DSNM configuration parameters in the startup message are ignored, and no error is reported.
