Sample TACL Macros

Example C-3 on page C-32 contains the source code for sample TACL macros. The

macros submit a job to a scheduler, execute a STATUS JOB command on the

submitted job, and display some of the job’s details. The source code for the macros is

available in the file NBSPIEX in the NetBatch installation subvolume.

To run the sample macros, follow these steps. The prerequisite to completing the

procedure is a D21 or later scheduler named $ZBAT running on the node where the

macros will run.

Step 1: Copy the Source Code

Copy the source code for the sample TACL macros from file NBSPIEX to a new EDIT

file:

> EDIT; GET $SYSGEN.ZNETBTCH.NBSPIEX 1101/1517 PUT

TEMP.TACLSRC

TEXT EDITOR - T9601D20 - (01JUN93)

CURRENT FILE IS $DATA7.TEMP.TACLSRC

Step 2: Change ISV.ZSPIDEF References

Change ISV.ZSPIDEF references in the new file to specify the volume and subvolume

containing the source-definition files ZSPISEGF and ZBATSEGF:

*LIST BOTH /ISV.ZSPIDEF/

1116 ATTACHSEG SHARED $ISV.ZSPIDEF.ZBATSEGF :zbat

1120 ATTACHSEG SHARED $ISV.ZSPIDEF.ZSPISEGF :spi

*CHANGE /ISV/SYSGEN/ ALL

1116 ATTACHSEG SHARED $SYSGEN.ZSPIDEF.ZBATSEGF :zbat

1120 ATTACHSEG SHARED $SYSGEN.ZSPIDEF.ZSPISEGF :spi

Step 3: Change Class Name

Change class name CLASS-A to that of an existing class in $ZBAT if class CLASS-A

does not exist in that scheduler. Otherwise, add class CLASS-A to $ZBAT.

*CHANGE /CLASS-A/OPERATIONS/ ALL

1351 #SET zbat^job^def:zclassname:z^c OPERATIONS

Step 4: Change Job Name

Change job name MASTER-A to your own choice of name if MASTER-A conflicts with

an existing production job in $ZBAT. Otherwise, delete job MASTER-A from $ZBAT.

*CHANGE /MASTER-A/TACL-JOB/ ALL

1260 #SET data^struct:data^area TACL-JOB
