*TLE_LIMIT............................ 2000
*AUTO_RETRY_ON_ERROR_654.............. OFF
Attributes marked with an asterisk (*) in the INFO display are changed using the SCF ALTER
command. Attributes without an asterisk are set in the CONFTEXT file during system generation.
Other system attributes and how they are configured are listed in the NonStop S-Series Planning
and Configuration Guide, the appropriate NonStop NS-series planning guide, or the NonStop
BladeSystem Planning Guide. See the DSM/SCM User's Guide for more information on system
generation and the CONFTEXT file.
Changing EMS Template Files
This procedure lets you specify the template object files for the Event Management Service (EMS)
to use. If you perform normal system installation (running DSM/SCM on the target system), this
procedure is not necessary.
NOTE: If you change the location of the EMS template files using this procedure, the
INSTALL^TEMPLATES program permanently changes the location of the EMS template files. As a
result, when you next run DSM/SCM, even though the Build and Apply creates new EMS templates,
the subsequent system load invokes the EMS templates previously specified to the
INSTALL^TEMPLATES program. To use the RTMPLATE and TEMPLATE EMS template files installed
in the new SYSnn by DSM/SCM, you must use this procedure with the command:
-> ALTER, RESIDENT_TEMPLATES $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.RTEMPLATE, &
NONRESIDENT_TEMPLATES $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.TMPLATE
1. As a precaution, save the current configuration file with an SCF SAVE command (documented
in the SCF Reference Manual for G-Series RVUs or the SCF Reference Manual for J-Series and
H-Series RVUs). For example, use this command to save the current configuration file in a file
at the location $SYSTEM.ZSYSCONF.CONF0104:
-> SAVE CONFIGURATION 1.4
2. View the current EMS template file names (shown here in bold type) with an INFO command:
-> ASSUME SUBSYS $ZZKRN
-> INFO
NONSTOP KERNEL - Info SUBSYS \EAST.$ZZKRN
Current Settings
*DAYLIGHT_SAVING_TIME ................ USA66
*NONRESIDENT_TEMPLATES................ $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.TEMPLATE
*POWERFAIL_DELAY_TIME................. 30
*RESIDENT_TEMPLATES................... $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.RTMPLATE
SUPER_SUPER_IS_UNDENIABLE............ OFF
*SYSTEM_NAME.......................... \EAST
*SYSTEM_NUMBER........................ 254
SYSTEM_PROCESSOR_TYPE ............... NSR-W
*TIME_ZONE_OFFSET..................... -8:00
*TNSMISALIGN.......................... FAIL
*DESTINATION_CONTROL_TABLE............ SMALL
*TLE_LIMIT............................ 2000
*AUTO_RETRY_ON_ERROR_654.............. OFF
NOTE: If $ZZKRN cannot find an EMS template file on $SYSTEM.SYSTEM, it then searches
for the file on the current $SYSTEM.SYSnn.
3. Change the configuration, using the ALTER command to specify different files for the resident
and nonresident EMS templates; for example:
-> ALTER, RESIDENT_TEMPLATES $SYSTEM.TEMPLATE.TNEW, &
NONRESIDENT_TEMPLATES $SYSTEM.TEMPLATE.NRTNEW
