Rule Actions
When a message triggers the rule, the message handler starts NCL procedure
ZRMSDSNN to perform the following:
1. Issue DSNM commands to restart the Expand line identified in the message. If the
restart operation is successful, the procedure logs the following message in the
NonStop NET/MASTER MS activity log:
RMS9902 EXPAND LINE line-name RECOVERY COMPLETE. STATUS:
UP
2. If Step 1 fails, delay one minute and then retry Step 1. The restart operation
repeats until it is successful or the action is deleted. See “Displaying, Freezing,
and Deleting Active Subjects” in Section 9 for information on how to delete rule
actions for an active subject.
NCL Queue
The rule actions execute in the BASERULEZEXPANDNOTRY NCL queue, which has a
default execution limit of 5.
Customizing the Rule
You can customize the rule by changing the execution limit of the NCL queue in which
the rule actions execute. Use the NCLQUEUE SET command from the OCS command
line to change the execution limit. See Section 3, “Planning for, Installing, and
Managing RMS,” for more information.
ZPATHTCPFAIL ZPATHTCPFAIL is a message action rule that acts in response to event number 1016
from the Pathway subsystem. The rule restarts a Pathway TCP and the associated
terminals.
Message Delivery
The rule instructs the message handler to deliver the original message (event
number 1016 from the Pathway subsystem) which appears in NonStop NET/MASTER
MS as the following:
PWY1016 *1016* TCP tcp-name , FAILED
The subject is tcp-name with the name of the PATHWAY process as the manager (for
example, ZVPT-TCP as subject and \SDPL.$ZVPT as manager).
