SIGNON link-name
NonStop NET/MASTER MS Commands
2–426 115412 Tandem Computers Incorporated
After you have logged on to a remote NonStop NET/MASTER MS or SOLVE
management services system, you can use the ROUTE command to execute
commands in the remote system. The results of the commands are returned to
your local system.
If you always have to log on to a number of remote systems, you should consider
establishing an NCL procedure containing the necessary SIGNON link-name
commands to be executed automatically when you enter OCS.
You can have more than one operational OCS window in split screen mode. The
equivalent number of operational windows can also be active at the remote
system. Multiple windows at a remote system can also be profiled differently by
routing a PROFILE command specifying the required operands.
Virtual users such as the Background Monitor and the Background Logger can log
on to remote systems provided that their logical user IDs are defined at the remote
system.
For related information, see the PARAM FEATUREDISABLE, ROUTE, SHOW
LINKS, SHOW USERS, and SIGNOFF link-name commands.
