About This Manual
This manual describes the Distributed Systems Management (DSM) programmatic
interfaces (commands, responses, and event messages in Subsystem Programmatic
Interface (SPI) format) to the NetBatch subsystem.
Audience
The intended audience for this manual includes:
•
Experienced C, COBOL, HP Tandem Advanced Command Language (TACL ), and
Transaction Application Language (TAL) programmers who write applications that
communicate programmatically with the NetBatch subsystem
•
Others who need detailed information about the NetBatch programmatic interfaces
Prerequisites

•
Familiarity with NonStop™ system architecture, HP NonStop operating system,
and system operations
•
Familiarity with SPI, as described in the SPI Programming Manual
•
Reading knowledge of the Data Definition Language (DDL)
•
Skill in programming in the language used to write the application
•
Detailed working knowledge of NetBatch subsystem concepts, facilities,
management, and operations as described in the NetBatch Manual
