obj-file
specifies the name of the RDT database that will be built. If a file of the same name
already exists and its file code is the same as that of RDT database, that file is
deleted. If the file exists but its file code is different from that of RDT database, the
program terminates with a diagnostic message.
command
optionally specifies one of the commands recognized by HLSRDT. If commands
are present on the startup line, there must be a semicolon after
obj-file
and a
semicolon separating each command.
When commands are included on the startup line, no further command is retrieved
from the IN file, and the banner line is not printed.
The listings produced by the HLSRDT program indicate the PROFILE, BIND, and
INIT images that are included and those that are excluded. Final statistics indicate the
storage utilization, the file name, and the creation date.
The following conventions are used to specify the values that can be ascribed to the
attributes.
22-hex-digits
Is the ASCII representation of 22 hexadecimal digits. Each
character must be a valid hexadecimal digit (0-9, A-F). Each
consecutive pair of characters represents 1 byte in hexadecimal
notation (11 bytes total).
name-8
Represents a name composed of between 1 and 8, 24,
name-24
or 32 characters. The characters can be any letter, digit, or the
name-32
underscore character (_). The names are case insensitive. All
names beginning with an underscore are reserved to Tandem
and should be avoided.
yesno
Represents a truth condition and can be indicated as YES or NO.
You can also enter the word TRUE for YES, or the word FALSE
for NO, although the SHOW command always displays YES or
NO.
string
Represents a character string enclosed in quotes. Embedded
quotes are represented by double quotes.
integer
Represents a number in decimal notation. Further restrictions on
the values can be given.
rusize
Represents the size of an RU (request response unit). The values
are restricted to those that can be expressed in the form a*(2**b),
where “a” is one of the values 8 through 15, and “b” is one of
the values 0 through 15. However, due to constraints imposed
by SNAX/HLS and the file system, only values between 8 and
30,720 are permissible. See Appendix A, “Table of RU Sizes,” for
additional details.
