Subsystem Control Facility (SCF)
Subsystem Control Facility (SCF)
SCF configures and manages several subsystems that control system processes and
hardware, including communications paths, disks, tapes, terminals, printers, and
communications lines. You can run SCF from any workstation or terminal on the
system after you are logged on. Use SCF to:
Configure and add an object
Remove an object
Begin or restore access to an object
Stop access to an object
Show static configuration information for an object
Show dynamic information for an object
Automate subsystem startup and shutdown procedures
Power off the system
HP Tandem Advanced Command Language
(TACL)
The TACL product is the command interface to the NonStop operating system. In
addition to providing full command-interpreter facilities, you can program the TACL
interface to help you manage your system in these ways:
Automate subsystem startup and shutdown procedures. For example, you can
use TACL statements to initialize Pathway, the TMF subsystem, the TRANSFER
system, and other subsystems.
Run utilities and issue commands with either a fixed set of commands or a flexible
set that you can tailor at run time.
Create a customized environment that simplifies commonly performed tasks for
users.
TMFCOM
TMFCOM allows you to enter commands that initiate communication with TMF,
request various TMF operations, and terminate communication with TMF.
