TRANSFER Installation and Management Guide

System Installation Procedures
068837, Update 1 to 013198 Tandem Computers Incorporated 6–21
The automatically generated configuration files and corresponding components are:
GTRCNFG—for Base TRANSFER, including ADMIN and TMANAGER
GMLCNFG—for PS MAIL 6530
GIMCNFG—for PS MAIL 3270
GCMCNFG—for PS MAIL TTY
GX4CNFG—for the X400 gateway
For configuration processing to be successful, the configuration file for the components
included in your system must reside in the configuration subvolume. If one of these
files does not reside in the configuration subvolume, XCNFG assumes that the
component should not be configured.
During the configuration run, XCNFG performs the following operations:
1. Purges the PATHWAY control file (PATHCTL) and issues an ASSIGN message for
PATHCTL to create in the configuration subvolume.
2. Checks for the existence of a GxxUPDT file (where xx is the definition file prefix,
such as TR, CM, or X4). If the file is found, it is invoked. A given GxxUPDT file is
invoked only once after each run of the component definition program. Table 6-2
shows which programs generate GxxUPDT files and the purpose of each file.
Table 6-2. GxxUPDT Files
Program File Purpose
CDTRDEF GTRUPDT Updates name directory entries used for processing of
external objects
CDCMDEF GCMUPDT Uses FUP to duplicate the PS MAIL TTY object file and
the G9130CFG configuration file to the system
subvolumes specified in DEFINECM
CDX4DEF GX4UPDT Updates name directory entries for X400 processing
3. Cold starts PATHWAY.
4. Invokes PATHCOM and adds information for the components whose
configuration files reside in the configuration subvolume in the order that they are
listed.
5. Adds information contained in a customizing configuration file CUSTCNFG if that
file resides in the configuration subvolume (see Section 7 for more information).
6. Shuts down the PATHWAY system and runs FUP to deallocate unused extents in
the PATHCTL file.
