CLOSTERM
NonStop NET/MASTER MS Commands
2–22 115412 Tandem Computers Incorporated
CLOSTERM The CLOSTERM command closes the specified terminal(s) from use with NonStop
NET/MASTER MS. A terminal must be defined to NonStop NET/MASTER MS and
opened for use with NonStop NET/MASTER MS before you can use the CLOSTERM
command. Terminals can be defined and opened either explicitly (by using the
TERMINAL ADD and OPENTERM commands, respectively) or implicitly (by running
the NNM utility program from TACL).
If a terminal was explicitly defined and opened, the CLOSTERM command closes the
terminal but does not affect the terminal definition record. The NonStop
NET/MASTER MS logon screen is not redisplayed. The SHOW TERM command does
not display information about the terminal. The SHOW TERMDEF command shows
that status of the terminal is DISCON’D.
If a terminal was implicitly defined and opened, the CLOSTERM command closes the
terminal and deletes the terminal definition record. The TACL prompt is redisplayed.
The SHOW TERM and SHOW TERMDEF commands do not display information
about the terminal.
CLOSTERM [ device-name | logical-name | ALL ]
Note Entering the CLOSTERM command with no operands closes the terminal of the user entering the
command; this is not recommended.
device-name
specifies the physical name of the terminal. This is the name by which the
operating system recognizes the terminal. You can specify a device name in the
following forms:
\*
\ sys *
\ sys .*
[ \ sys . ]*
[ \ sys . ]$*
[ \ sys . ]$ device *
[ \ sys . ]$ device .*
[ \ sys . ]$ device .#*
[ \ sys . ]$ device .# subdevice *
[ \ sys . ]$ device [ .# subdevice ]
You can specify an asterisk (*) as the last character of a device name. In this
context, the asterisk is a wild card.
Note NonStop NET/MASTER MS does not assume a default system name when attempting to find the device
name you specify.
