Installing a Customized Command Help Database
You must install both the customized and distributed command help files together as a
UDB pair before anyone can obtain both customized and distributed command help
information. (A UDB pair is two key-sequenced files that are treated as a single logical
file in all file-processing operations. For more information on UDB pairs, refer to the
NonStop NET/MASTER NCL Programmer’s Guide.)
To install the customized and distributed command help files as a UDB pair after
NonStop NET/MASTER MS startup, follow these steps from Operator Control
Services (OCS) in NonStop NET/MASTER MS:
1. Determine the UDB identifier of the distributed command help database by
issuing the following command:
SHOW UDB
It is likely that the UDB identifier is ZHLPDB. NonStop NET/MASTER MS uses
the ZHLPDB identifier to identify the NonStop NET/MASTER MS command help
database.
2. Close the distributed command help database by issuing the following command:
UDBCTL CLOSE=$ isv-vol .ZNNMDATA.ZHLPDB
3. Open the customized and distributed command help files as a UDB pair by
issuing the following command:
UDBCTL OPEN=($ isv-vol .ZNNMDATA.HLPCDB,$ isv-vol .ZNNMDATA.ZHLPDB)
ID=ZHLPDB
Note The order in which the file names are specified is significant. The first file is opened for read and write
access; the second file is opened for read-only access. Refer to the NonStop NET/MASTER MS
Command Reference Manual for the complete syntax of the UDBCTL OPEN command.
If you want to make the customized and distributed command help files available as a
UDB pair every time the NonStop NET/MASTER MS is started, follow the directions
in Section 3, “Configuring NonStop NET/MASTER MS,” to customize the INIT NCL
procedure. Edit the customized INIT NCL procedure to open the two files as shown
in the following statements:
&filename1 = "$ isv-vol .ZNNMDATA.HLPCDB"
&filename2 = "$
isv-vol .ZNNMDATA.ZHLPDB"
say Opening &filename1 &filename2
call issue_udbctl( "UDBCTL OPEN=("||&FILENAME1||","||&FILENAME2||")",
"ID=ZHLPDB" )
