DID
DID= domain-id
specifies the NonStop NET/MASTER MS domain ID.
You can specify a domain ID from one through four characters long. You must
use alphanumeric characters. The first character of the domain ID must be
alphabetic.
If you do not specify a domain ID, the default domain ID is the first four
characters of the Expand system name (without the leading backslash (\)), or
ANON if the system is unnamed.
Considerations
The domain ID is used to identify a NonStop NET/MASTER MS system in a
network of other NonStop NET/MASTER MS and the SOLVE management
services systems, and must be unique in that network. It is required for NonStop
NET/MASTER MS to communicate with other NonStop NET/MASTER MS and
the SOLVE management services systems using Inter-NET/MASTER Connection
(INMC).
The domain ID is used to prefix the user IDs of virtual users such as the
Background Logger (BLOG), the Background Monitor (BMON), the Background
System Process (BSYS), the Event Management Service Process (EMSP), and the
Activity Log Process (LOGP). Displays that show the user IDs of virtual users
include those from the SHOW TIMER and SHOW USERS commands.
If the domain ID defaults to the first four characters of the Expand system name
(without the leading backslash (\)), then when NonStop NET/MASTER MS
forwards a Network Management Vector Transport (NMVT) message to the
SOLVE management services, NonStop NET/MASTER MS appends an at sign (@)
to the end of the COMC resource name, to provide a unique IBM system VTAM
name for the indicated COMC physical unit (PU) name. For further information
on NMVT instrumentation, refer to the NonStop NET/MASTER MS System
Management Guide.
Example
The following example specifies a domain ID of SYS1:
PARAM DID=SYS1
With the domain ID specified in the preceding example, user IDs of the five virtual
users are the following:
SYS1BLOG
SYS1BMON
SYS1BSYS
SYS1EMSP
SYS1LOGP
