Configuring and Starting a Simple PATHMON
Environment (Task 1)
allows up to five input-output devices to be used at the same time. These
commands enable the PATHMON process and the TCP to support up to five
application terminals simultaneously.
•
The SET SERVER MAXLINKS command allows up to five concurrent links to
exist between a server process and a TCP. This enables the server process to
queue up to five requests, each of which is handled by the server process as
soon as the current request is completed. (This queueing of multiple requests
is also supported by the RECEIVE-CONTROL paragraph in the Environment
Division of the server program.)
•
The ADD PROGRAM command assigns the name SIMPLE to the PROGRAM
object.
7. Issue an OBEY command to execute the commands in the COLD1 file:
8> OBEY COLD1
In response to the fourth command in the COLD1 file, the commands in the
CONFIG1 file are also executed.
8. When you receive a prompt from PATHCOM, issue a RUN command to run the
application from your command terminal, referencing the PROGRAM name
SIMPLE:
= RUN SIMPLE
At this point, you are using your terminal as an application user at an application
device, rather than as a system manager. If other temporary (PROGRAM)
terminals are available, try running the application from those terminals as well.
You can run the application from up to five terminals concurrently.
When the application begins execution, it displays a screen that contains the text
MESSAGE NUMBER as a prompt for you to enter a digit: 0, 1, or 2.
Select a digit and press the F1 function key. The screen program, through the
TCP, sends a message containing the digit to the server. The server replies
according to the digit it receives, directing the TCP’s screen program to display a
message that indicates the digit. For instance, if you enter 2, the screen program
displays:
THIS IS MESSAGE NUMBER TWO
You can repeat the digit entry and transmission as often as you like. If you enter a
character other than 0, 1, or 2, or press the wrong function key, the screen
program displays an error message.
You can terminate the application at any time by pressing the F16 function key;
control returns to PATHCOM.
9. Shut down your PATHMON environment by entering:
= SHUTDOWN2, MODE ORDERLY
