ASSIGN
CODE file-code
assigns a file code to logical-unit. Specify file-code as an integer in
the range 0 through 65535. If file-code is omitted, the file code is set to 0.
REC record-size
sets the length of records in logical-unit. Specify record-size a s an
integer in the range 1 through 65535.
BLOCK block-size
sets the size of the data blocks used by logical-unit. Specify block-size as
an integer in the range 1 through 65535.
Considerations
If the logical-unit is omitted, ASSIGN displays all the current assigned
values.
If the actual-file-name is omitted, the current assignment value for the
logical-unit displays.
If actual-file-name is omitted but create-open-spec is included, blanks
are passed in the actual-file-name field of the ASSIGN message.
Use the CLEAR command to delete existing ASSIGN messages. See the CLEAR
command description.
There is a limit of 50 ASSIGN messages supported by EMS Analyzer.
EMS Analyzer creates an ASSIGN message for each ASSIGN command. A new
process must request its ASSIGN message following receipt of the startup message.
All ASSIGN messages read from TACL and the ones set in EMS Analyzer are
passed to the new process.
The ASSIGN message resulting from entry of an ASSIGN command supersedes any
ASSIGN message read at EMS Analyzer startup time.
The ASSIGN messages set in EMS Analyzer are lost when exiting from EMS
Analyzer.
If the Break key is pressed during an EMS Analyzer session and a new ASSIGN
message is set outside of EMS Analyzer, EMS Analyzer cannot receive this
ASSIGN message. EMS Analyzer cannot pass the new ASSIGN message when it
creates a process.
