Redirecting OSS Standard Files

OSS standard file); to a Guardian process or the Guardian file system, the OSS

process appears to be a Guardian file-system object. OSSTTY can be started by an

individual user through the OSH command or directly by an OSS administrator.

OSSTTY can be used to redirect one or more OSS standard files to Guardian EDIT

files or Guardian processes. Figure 6-5 on page 6-28 illustrates use of the OSS shell

when only the OSS standard output and standard error files are redirected, but input is

still accepted from the Telserv terminal that enters the following command; the process

name $ZAAA is assigned by the NonStop operating system when OSSTTY is started:

OSH -osstty / OUT $DATA.OSSLOG.EDITFIL, TERM $VHS /

Figure 6-6 on page 6-29 illustrates the behavior when OSSTTY is run as a server

named $ZTTY before starting an application program explicitly designed to use it, such

as mysample3 in the following command set:

RUN OSSTTY / NAME $ZTTY, IN $VHS,OUT $DATA.OSSLOG.EDITFIL,

TERM $VHS, NOWAIT / -server

OSH -p "/usr/mysample3"

For information about using OSSTTY through the OSH command, see the osh(1)

reference page either online or in the Open System Services Shell and Utilities

Reference Manual. For an example of a TACL script using OSSTTY, see the Open

System Services Programmer’s Guide.
