DSNMCom: The I Process Test Utility
run-option
is any run option for the TACL RUN command. Run options must be separated by
commas and set off in the command line by slashes (/). See the TACL Reference
Manual for descriptions of valid run options.
Two run options most often used with DSNMCom are:
IN filename
OUT filename
IN filename
causes DSNMCom to read and execute commands located in the specified file.
If you omit IN filename, DSNMCom uses the input file in effect for the
current TACL process: usually, the home terminal.
OUT filename
causes DSNMCom to send its output to the specified file.
If you omit OUT filename, the output is directed to the output file in effect
for the current TACL process: usually, the home terminal.
If filename does not exist, an EDIT file is created.
DSNM section-name
initializes the DSNMCom subsystem and object tables using the configuration file
pointed to in the named section-name of $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.DSNM. If you
do not specify a section name (blank value), the blank section of
$SYSTEM.SYSTEM.DSNM is used.
CONFIG filename
initializes the DSNMCom subsystem and object tables using the named
configuration file. Only one configuration file can be specified. If do not specify a
configuration file (blank value), the blank section of $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.DSNM is
used.
WARNING. DSNMCom and the process(es) you are testing must all be using the same
DSNMCONF file for the subsystem, CI, and I process configuration parameters. If you are
testing an I process, you must specify the same DSNMCONF file in both your I process RUN
command and your DSNMCom RUN command; otherwise, results are unpredictable.
If you specify more than one configuration file in your I process RUN command (for instance, if
you are maintaining your subsystem-specific configuration parameters separately from your
installation’s production DSNM configuration parameters), you must provide DSNMCom with
the configuration file that contains the subsystem-specific configuration information.
