Receiving Unsolicited
Messages
In addition to command responses, you may explicitly request that unsolicited
messages be displayed in the message display area.
Use the PROFILE ENV=CURRENT command followed by the appropriate operand(s)
to turn the display of unsolicited messages on or off. For example:
PROFILE ENV=CURRENT EMS=YES UNSOL=YES
The PROFILE command is discussed in more detail in the NonStop NET/MASTER MS
Command Reference Manual.
Entering Commands When the UTILITY field on the Command Entry screen is blank, you can enter a
NonStop NET/MASTER MS command in the COMMAND field. If you want to
execute a command on a remote NonStop NET/MASTER MS or SOLVE management
services system, also enter the name of the link connecting that system in the SYSTEM
field and press the ENTER key.
Responses to commands are displayed in the message display area.
When the UTILITY field is not blank, you should be aware of the following rules and
restrictions when entering commands:
If the command goes to the utility, enter the command as is.
If the utility accepts multiple commands, enter the commands together with the
command separators. However, if the command separator is a semicolon (;), use
two semicolons (;;) instead. For example, if the utility is PERUSE and you want
help, and you want to display the names of the files in the current subvolume,
enter the following command:
HELP;;FILES
If you do not want the command to go to the utility, you must prefix the command
with a slash (/).
If you want to enter multiple commands but do not want them to go to the utility,
you must prefix the first command with a slash (/) as in the following example:
/PROFILE; SHOW TERMDEF=ALL
You can concatenate commands that do not go to the utility to a command that
goes to the utility. For example, if the utility is FUP and the command string is
SECURE $DATA.ZNCLPGN.MYFILE, "CCCC"; PROFILE
with the two commands separated by a semicolon (;), only the first command goes
to the utility. The second command displays the profile of the environment.
You can use only NonStop NET/MASTER MS commands that can be issued
through the NCL INTCMD verb (refer to NonStop NET/MASTER MS Command
Reference Manual), except for the following: !, CLEAR, FC, K, and X.
