User Commands (g - j) gtacl(1)
NAME
gtacl - Runs a process in the Guardian environment from the OSS environment
SYNOPSIS
gtacl [ option ... ][operands ]
FLAGS
Operands used with the gtacl command must follow gtacl option specifications.
Options
All filename and pathname arguments used with gtacl options must be specified using OSS path-
name syntax. In the current release, filenames and pathnames within the /E directory are not sup-
ported by the OSS file system. These specifications allow the user to identify Guardian environ-
ment objects on other HP nodes.
The specification of options ends when gtacl finds one of the following:
• The end of the input line
• Any operand; that is, any specification that does not start with a minus (-) or plus (+) and
is not a redirection specification
• -- option
• -p option
Options cannot be grouped after a single minus (-) or plus (+). That is, -debugnowait is not a
valid option specification.
The gtacl options can be specified in any order; gtacl processes options from left to right. When
you specify a gtacl option more than once, the rightmost specification on the command line
determines the value used.
-? | -help Displays usage information for the gtacl command. If this option is specified, all
other gtacl options and operands on the command line are ignored.
-c command |-cvcommand
Submits command to the child process through the Guardian environment
STDIN file of the child process.
The command string must conform to OSS /bin/sh quoting conventions. Refer to
the sh(1) reference page for a description of those conventions.
When you specify the -c command option, gtacl suppresses all input and output
operations except for those that occur after command is read and before the end-
of-file (EOF) indication is returned. Use this option when you do not want Guar-
dian program banner information or similar output that is not data generated by
running command.
When you specify the -cv command option, gtacl displays all output, regardless
of whether it occurs after command is read and before the end-of-file (EOF) indi-
cation is returned. Use this option when you do not want to discard Guardian
program banner information or similar output that is not data generated by run-
ning command.
If you specify either of these options, the OSS environment standard input file
for gtacl is not connected to the Guardian environment standard input file of the
child process. Refer to Input/OutputFiltering under NOTES later in this refer-
ence page for more information.
