Example
SaveLanguageFile SERVER.MSG
If the current language ID is 4, SERVER.MSG in the DOS startup directory
(BOOT directory) is copied to the subdirectory 4 in the DOS startup directory.
Spawn
Syntax
Spawn <file name>
Description
Spawn issues the operating system command LOAD <file_name>, then the
installation continues to execute. See “Exec” on page 123.
Example
Spawn MY.NLM
The MY.NLM file is loaded and executed. Spawn follows the normal NLM
search path to find MY.NLM. The installation and the child NLM both
execute, sharing the CPU through context switches.
External Commands
This section describes commands provided by ICMD.NLM, a companion to
the NetWare Installation NLMs (INSTALL.NLM and NWCONFIG.NLM).
See “NetWare Installation Command Version Availability” on page 161 for a
table showing the ICMD versions that support these commands.
Version 2.10 External Command Compatibility
If you intend to use ICMD.NLM 2.18 or greater, do not copy this new version
to SYS:SYSTEM. Instead, copy it to a different directory and load it from
there.
For example, the script commands below will copy ICMD.NLM to a
temporary directory and load from there.
CopyToServer SYSTEM\TMP, ICMD.NLM, ““, ““
Command TMP\ICMD
