Functions
F4–PATHCOM Runs PATHCOM, the command interface to the Pathway monitor
process PATHMON. Use the interface to describe terminals, terminal
control processes, and servers to the Pathway system. When you exit
from the interface, the NetBatch-Plus application returns you to the Utility
Menu screen.
For information on using the PATHCOM command interface, see the
Pathway/TS System Management Manual.
F5–FUP Runs FUP, the File Utility Program. You can use the program to perform
many functions involving disk files and devices such as tape drives. For
example, you can create, display, duplicate, and purge files, alter file
characteristics, and load data into files. When you exit from the program,
the NetBatch-Plus application returns you to the Utility Menu screen.
For information on using the FUP program, see the File Utility Program
(FUP) Reference Manual.
F6–EDIT Runs the text editing program EDIT. The program provides two editors:
EDIT (a line editor) and EDIT VS (a screen editor). You can use either of
these editors to write documents and store them on the computer. When
you exit from the program, the NetBatch-Plus application returns you to
the Utility Menu screen.
For information on using the EDIT program, see the Edit User’s Guide
and Reference Manual.
F7–TACL Runs TACL (Tandem Advanced Command Language), the standard
command interpreter for the Guardian operating system. Use the TACL
command interpreter to manipulate files, devices, and data, control
processes, and interact with the system environment and the TACL
environment. You can also use TACL built-in functions and variables to
define your own commands and to develop routines.
The NetBatch-Plus application starts a new TACL process on your
terminal when you select this function. After starting the process, you
must log on (using a Guardian user ID) before you can begin entering
commands. To stop the process and return to the Utility Menu screen,
use the TACL EXIT command while you are still logged on. (You cannot
return to the Utility Menu screen if you log off.)
For information on using the TACL command interpreter, see the
Tandem Advanced Command Language (TACL) Reference Manual.
F8–TMFCOM Runs TMFCOM, the utility you use to configure and control the
Transaction Management Facility (TMF). When you exit from the utility,
the NetBatch-Plus application returns you to the Utility Menu screen.
For information on using the TMFCOM utility, see the TMF Reference
Manual.
