The format of the OPSYS command, when used to run Guardian conversational
utilities, is as follows:
[ OPSYS ] dsnm-utility-command [ session [ = utility ] [ text ] ]
dsnm-utility-command is one of:
ANSWER BREAK CLEANUP [ STOP | DOWN ]
EOF KILL [ SEND ]
session
is the name by which the utility session is identified.
utility
is the name of a Guardian utility or TACL macro defined through the NonStop
NET/MASTER MS User ID Management Services (UMS) facility. Use only when
a session is being created and if you want to assign a session name that is different
from the utility name.
text
is the command or parameters to be sent to the session.
Refer to the User’s Guide to DSNM Commands for a complete description of DSNM
utility access command syntax and the NonStop NET/MASTER MS Command Reference
Manual for a complete description of the OPSYS command.
When you issue an OPSYS command (either explicitly or implicitly; OPSYS is
sometimes optional as explained under “Starting a Session With a Utility,” later in this
section) to communicate with a Guardian utility, NonStop NET/MASTER MS receives
the results of interaction with the utility, and sends the results either to your terminal
or to the NCL process from which the utility session was established.

Utility Access Security Each Guardian utility you can interact with through OPSYS must have been defined
for your NonStop NET/MASTER MS system. This is considered a system
management task and is discussed in the NonStop NET/MASTER MS System
Management Guide. You may not have access to all of the Guardian utilities that you
are able to use outside of NonStop NET/MASTER MS.
