Related Manuals
The following manuals are usually relevant for development and management of a
GDSX application:
•
The SCF Reference Manual for GDSX describes the Subsystem Control Facility
(SCF) interactive interface that allows operators and network managers to
configure and control a GDSX data communications subsystem. SCF also
provides a means for examining the configuration and status of a GDSX data
communications subsystem.
•
The Guardian Procedure Calls Reference Manual, NonStop TS/MP Pathsend and
Server Programming Manual, Pathway/iTS TCP and Terminal Programming Guide,
and NonStop TMF Application Programmer’s Guide describe the syntax of
procedure calls for NonStop systems, and are useful to the developer using GDSX
procedures that are identical to their Guardian, TS/MP, Pathway/iTS, and TMF
counterparts.
•
The GDS Management Programming Manual provides subsystem-specific
information about the management programming interfaces to GDSX using the
Subsystem Programmatic Interface (SPI) and the Event Management Service
(EMS). This manual is useful for programmers writing management applications
that communicate with GDSX, and for TACL users writing macros to perform
system and network management functions using GDSX.
