This section describes how to use BATCHCOM commands:
Running BATCHCOM
Use the TACL RUN command to run the BATCHCOM program and start a
BATCHCOM session. A session lasts until the program stops.
There are two types of BATCHCOM sessions:
•
Interactive (also known as conversational), during which BATCHCOM responds to
each command you type at its prompt (a single, closing brace)
•
Noninteractive, during which BATCHCOM automatically executes commands
specified in an input file or in the TACL RUN command
This subsection describes TACL RUN command syntax as it applies to running
BATCHCOM. Included are brief discussions of factors to consider before you run
BATCHCOM. Examples illustrate various run options and program parameters.
node
is the name of the node where the BATCHCOM program file resides. If the node is
remote, you must have remote access to it (that is, you must have remote
passwords set up on both local and remote nodes). The default is the node where
the process that creates the BATCHCOM process is running.
volume
is one of:
$volume-name.subvolume-name
specifies the volume and subvolume containing the BATCHCOM program file.
