Running NETBATCH
For an implicit RUN command, enter the NETBATCH program file name only. If
you enter a partially qualified file name, the TACL program searches for the file
in the subvolumes specified by the TACL #PMSEARCHLIST variable.
schd
specifies the name of the scheduler process. The name can contain from one to
four alphanumeric characters (preceded by the dollar sign), of which the first must
be alphabetic. Omitting schd makes the TACL program generate a process name
of the default form (for example, $Z024).
NOWAIT
causes the TACL program to return its prompt after sending the startup message to
the scheduler process, instead of pausing while the scheduler runs.
run-option
is one of these TACL RUN command options. For descriptions of these options,
see the RUN[D] command description in the TACL Reference Manual.
schd-database-subvol
specifies, in one of these forms, the name of the subvolume where the scheduler
creates, opens, and maintains its database files:
$volume-name.subvolume-name
$volume-name
subvolume-name
The default schd-database-subvol varies, depending on whether you omit the
parameter or specify only one of $volume-name and subvolume-name.
When you omit schd-database-subvol, the default is the current default
subvolume. For example, the scheduler started by this command specifies (by
omission) $DATA7.TRASH as its database subvolume:
$DATA7.TRASH 93> $NB.MAN14.NETBATCH /NAME, NOWAIT/
When you specify one of $volume-name and subvolume-name for schd-
database-subvol, NETBATCH uses the current defaults to supply the other. For
example, the scheduler started by this command specifies $SYSTEM.TRASH as
its database subvolume:
$A.TRASH 104> $NB.MAN14.NETBATCH /NAME, NOWAIT/ $SYSTEM
