Creating and Using a
Customized READY NCL
Procedure
The READY NCL procedure distributed by Tandem contains information that may
change in subsequent releases of NonStop NET/MASTER MS. There are two main
methods you can use to customize the distributed READY NCL procedure and avoid
having your customizations overwritten. The method you choose depends on your
own site requirements.
Note Tandem recommends you use Method 1 when creating and using a customized READY NCL procedure.
If NonStop NET/MASTER MS cannot find the READY NCL procedure, it fails to start.
Method 1
Method 1 is fully described in “Creating and Using a Customized INIT NCL
Procedure,” earlier in this section. Note the following differences that apply to the
READY NCL procedure:
1. Leave the distributed READY NCL procedure provided by Tandem in the
distribution procedure library. Do not rename or edit this NCL procedure.
2. Create a customized READY NCL procedure in the customized procedure library.
Choose a name other than READY for this NCL procedure. For example:
CUSTREAD.
3. Add the PARAM READY command to the CONFIG file with the name of the
customized READY NCL procedure. For example, if you want to use a file named
CUSTREAD, include this command in the CONFIG file:
PARAM READY=CUSTREAD
4. Edit the customized READY NCL procedure, CUSTREAD, to:
a. Call the distributed READY NCL procedure. For example:
CALL READY
b. Execute additional statements.
