Base TRANSFER
Definition and Initialization
Base TRANSFER is the only mandatory component of a TRANSFER system.
Installation of Base TRANSFER requires that you run the program CDTRDEF to
generate command files for configuring, starting, and stopping Base TRANSFER—
including ADMIN and TMANAGER. For an initial definition, the installation also
generates files for initializing Base TRANSFER data files.
To install Base TRANSFER initially, perform the following steps:
1. Run the CDTRDEF program for initialization.
2. Execute the obey file GTRINIT.
There is one step for redefinition:
Run the CDTRDEF program for redefinition.
See Section 8 for considerations on redefining and reconfiguring an existing Base
TRANSFER configuration.
CDTRDEF Program
The CDTRDEF program uses configuration information in the DEFINETR file to
generate configuration files for Base TRANSFER, including ADMIN and
TMANAGER. For the description of DEFINETR, see the Base TRANSFER define file
in Appendix A.
RUN CDTRDEF [ /run-option / ] [$ vol .] subvol [ INITIAL ]
[ REDEFINE ]
CDTRDEF
is the Base TRANSFER definition program. This program resides on the
TRANSFER user-DSV. If the TRANSFER user-DSV is not the default subvolume,
specify CDTRDEF in the form:
[$ vol .] transfer-dsv .CDTRDEF
run-option
is an option of the GUARDIAN 90 command interpreter RUN command, as
described in the Tandem Advanced Command Language (TACL) Reference Manual.
Include the option OUT $ filename , which specifies a printer or spooler process
to receive the listings generated by CDTRDEF.
[ $vol. ] subvol
is the volume and subvolume in which file DEFINETR resides (the configuration
subvolume). You must specify the subvolume, but you can use a default volume.
CDTRDEF stores the generated files in the configuration subvolume.
