PARAM TAPEMODE
LISTALL
specifies that all files copied are listed to the terminal specified by the TERM option
in the RUN SYSGENR command. This defaults to the TACL home terminal.
!
indicates that you do not wish to be prompted for further responses. If you do not
enter an exclamation point (!) either at the end of this PARAM specification or as
part of the response to the “Do you want to write another system image to disk?”
prompt, you will continue to receive that prompt after each DISKGEN execution.
Examples
•
Enter the following PARAM command to copy the new operating system image to
the $SYSTEM.SYS04 subvolume and list all files to the terminal:
> PARAM SYSGEN^DISKGENPARAM "$SYSTEM.SYS04, LISTALL"
•
To copy just the OSIMAGE file to the SYS04 subvolume, enter the following
PARAM command:
> PARAM SYSGEN^DISKGENPARAM "$SYSTEM.SYS04, OSIMAGE "
•
To inhibit the “Do you want to write another system image to disk?” prompt
generated by the previous example, enter the following command instead:
> PARAM SYSGEN^DISKGENPARAM "$SYSTEM.SYS04, OSIMAGE ! "
•
To copy the OSIMAGE, ODP2, and TDRVRS files (produced by SYSGENR) to the
SYS03 subvolume on \DATA1, enter the following command:
> PARAM SYSGEN^DISKGENPARAM "\DATA1.$SYSTEM.SYS03, &
(OSIMAGE, ODP2, TDRVRS), LISTALL"
•
To copy all the files that SYSGENR produces to the SYS03 subvolume on \DATA1,
enter the following command:
> PARAM SYSGEN^DISKGENPARAM "\DATA1.$SYSTEM.SYS03, &
(*.*.*), LISTALL"
For other ways to use the PARAM SYSGEN^DISKGENPARAM command, refer to
Table 3-3, SID and SIT Options.
PARAM TAPEMODE
For open-reel tapes you can use this PARAM to specify the tape mode to be used for
creating the SIT. (This PARAM does not apply to cartridge tape, which is operated in
stream mode only.)
However, if you specify the TAPEMODE keyword in response to the SYSGENR prompt
for a SIT, that value overrides any tape mode specified earlier. If you enter PARAM
