CMDSVR
CMDSVR= process-name [ [, process-name ] … ]
specifies the process name(s) of the Distributed Systems Network Management
(DSNM) command server process(es) with which NonStop NET/MASTER MS
communicates to handle DSNM subsystem commands.
You can specify up to 10 command server processes. If you cannot specify all
command server process names in a single line, you can repeat the PARAM
CMDSVR command to specify additional command server process names.
You can specify a unique process name from one through six characters long.
(This includes the initial dollar sign ($) of the process name.) You can specify a
process name in the form:
$ process-name
Considerations
DSNM subsystem commands are used from NonStop NET/MASTER MS to
control subsystems in a network. See the OPSYS command for more information
on DSNM subsystem commands.
If you include both the PARAM CMDSVR and PARAM CMDPROCESS
commands in the configuration file, the PARAM CMDSVR command has
precedence. (If you include both commands, although NonStop NET/MASTER
MS creates the command server named by the PARAM CMDPROCESS command,
NonStop NET/MASTER MS never uses it. This applies regardless of the order in
which the PARAM CMDSVR and PARAM CMDPROCESS commands appear in
the configuration file.)
If you define command servers using this command, NonStop NET/MASTER MS
does not configure other DSNM processes automatically. All DSNM commands
common to NonStop NET/MASTER MS and DSNM are routed to the servers
defined by the user.
When a user or NCL process initially establishes contact with a command server
process, all subsequent OPSYS commands executed during the user’s session
subsequent to the first command are sent to the same command server process. If
the PARAM CMDSVR command specifies more than one command server
process, each new user and NCL process is allocated the next available command
server process that best balances system loading when contact is established.
