Using HLSRUN to
Configure Pathway
APS is under the control of Pathway. The TACL macro HLSRUN can be used to set
up standard configurations. The conventions assumed by that procedure are used
throughout this manual. To establish the standard environment, you must select a
three-character name, such as HLS, from which the procedure automatically derives
three process names, two file names, and a server class name.
The three-character name identifies the SNAX/HLS process itself ($HLS).
The name suffixed by the letter P names the PATHMON process ($HLSp).
The name suffixed by the letter T names the TCP process ($HLSt).
The name prefixed by ZZ and suffixed by LOG names the Pathway log file
(zzHLSlog).
The name prefixed by ZZ and suffixed by CTL names the Pathway control file
(zzHLSctl).
The name itself identifies the Pathway server class name (HLS).
In addition, the server class APS-SRV is defined to support APS.
The installation can customize the configuration, but it is recommended that the
standard configuration be used. Future releases of the SNAX/HLS product will
update the standard configuration as needed.
Invoking the HLSRUN
Macro
The HLSRUN macro is invoked from TACL as follows:
>HLSRUN process-name [, option ]...
process-name
is a three-character mnemonic used to name the objects created, as described
above.
option
is one of the following:
STOP
is used to terminate the Pathway environment and delete all temporary files.
If specified, it overrides all other options.
DEBUG
is used to debug the backup SNAX/HLS process and should be used only in
collaboration with Tandem support staff. The option causes the
BACKUPDEBUG startup parameter to be used when the HLSOBJ file is run. See
Section 5, “Operating SNAX/HLS,” for details on the BACKUPDEBUG
configuration parameter.
