Starting TRANSFER
(XCOOL Program)
The XCOOL program starts all defined TRANSFER system components. This
program is generated when you run the definition program for Base TRANSFER
(CDTRDEF) and resides in the configuration subvolume.
XCOOL is a TACL macro; you must have TACL running on your system in order to
run XCOOL.
Before you run XCOOL, you need to complete running the definition programs for
each component you wish to include in your TRANSFER system and configure the
TRANSFER system by running XCNFG.
[ RUN ] XCOOL [ / OUT $ filename / ] [ TIMEWASRESET Y | N ]
XCOOL
is the TACL macro that starts the TRANSFER system. This program resides in the
configuration subvolume. The configuration subvolume must be the default
subvolume.
filename
specifies the file that contains the output from XCOOL.
TIMEWASRESET
is an optional argument to XCOOL. The default is N. Set TIMEWAS RESET to Y
only after you get an error 6127 from SPREP. See the discussion of SPREP in the
following subsection.
Note TIMEWASRESET can also be a PARAM when you create your own cool-start file. See “Running
SPREP” later in this section.
Example
Here is an example of running XCOOL:
1> RUN trancnfg.XCOOL
This command specifies running XCOOL in configuration subvolume TRANCNFG.
XCOOL writes output to the terminal. XCOOL uses files that were automatically
generated by the definition programs and written to the configuration subvolume.
These files contain PATHCOM commands to start the PATHWAY entities required by
the components. The automatically generated cool-start files and corresponding
components are:
GTRCOOL—for Base TRANSFER
GMLCOOL—for PS MAIL 6530
GIMCOOL—for PS MAIL 3270
GX4COOL—for the X400 gateway
