Specifying System File and Subvolume Locations
Configuring NonStop NET/MASTER MS
3–14 115414 NonStop NET/MASTER MS System Management Guide
If the file does not exist, NonStop NET/MASTER MS creates the file during its startup
phase. If the file exists, NonStop NET/MASTER MS purges the data in the file during
its startup phase. The default value is $isv-vol.ZNNMDATA.pLGFILE1, where p is the
process character. See Section 2, “Starting NonStop NET/MASTER MS,” for a
discussion of the process character.
If you specify the name of an existing file that is not a log file, no logging takes place.
In such instances, you can use the SHOW UDB and SHOW LOGS commands to
determine what has happened. The SHOW SYSPARMS=LOGFILE* command lists the
physical names of the log files.
Specifying the Location of
the Map File
Use the MDSMAPFILE operand to specify the name of the file that contains map
information. A map is a set of definitions that, taken together, describe the entire
structure of some data item that an NCL procedure processes. The file specified by the
MDSMAPFILE operand includes map definitions for standard maps (such as $MAP,
$NCL, $MSG, $SEC, and $SPI) and user-defined maps.
To change the location of the MAPFILE, change the CONFIG file to include the
following command:
PARAM MDSMAPFILE=$DATA.ZNNMTEST. p MAPFILE
p is the process character value. For more information about map definitions and
mapped data objects, refer to the NonStop NET/MASTER NCL Programmer’s Guide. See
Section 12, “Maintaining the Map File,” for more information about maintaining the
map file.
Specifying the Location of
External Utility Security
Files
NonStop NET/MASTER MS enables you to define and secure access to external
utilities that can be used from within it. You enable access to the utility by providing
two kinds of information. First, you define the external utility by specifying such
information as its location, characteristics, and the like. Second, you can specify the
minimum command authority level required to access the utility and, separately,
conversational-mode utility commands from within NonStop NET/MASTER MS.
The four operands listed in Table 3-5 specify the location of files that contain external
utility information.
