This section describes these operational topics:
•
Files that are required and recommended for TACL operation
•
Starting a TACL process and subordinate processes
•
Using TACL directories
•
Running TACL as a background process

Installation Instructions
TACL is now also delivered with HIGHPIN set to ON. To get TACL with HIGHPIN set
to ON, follow the below steps:
1. Run this command:
FUP RENAME <install-vol>.<SYSnn>.TACL, TACLLOW
2. Run this command:
FUP DUP <install-vol>.ZTACL.TACLH,<install-vol>.<SYSnn>.TACL
3. Restart all TACL processes..
TACL Software RVU Files
TACL uses these files:
•
TACL, a program file that is usually stored at $SYSTEM.SYSnn.TACL.
•
TACLINIT, an edit file that resides on the same subvolume as the TACL file.
•
TACLCSTM, an edit file that provides customization for your personal TACL
environment. The file starts with a ?TACL MACRO directive and resides in your
default subvolume.
•
TACLLOCL, an edit file that is invoked by TACL to perform customization of the
TACL environment for all TACL users on a system. The file starts with a ?TACL
MACRO directive and resides on the same subvolume as the TACL file.
•
TACLSEGF, a segment file that contains TACL commands and the code for all
other products (that are part of a software RVU) on the system that include TACL
programs.
Note. From this SPR the ZTACL subvol will be available, under which the TACLH file for
HIGHPIN is present.
