Contents __________ This file includes the following information: 1.0 Prerequisites 2.0 Installing Diag 08 3.0 Customizing Diag 08 4.0 Running Diag 08 5.0 Notices 5.1 Trademarks 1.0 Prerequisites for Diag 08 VM/CP command console interface ______________________________________________________________ Currently, there are no special prerequisites required for installing or using this program. 2.0 Installing Diag 08 VM/CP command console interface _______________________________________________________ This tool requires that you load the TPF code to a real-time segment in the TPF system. This requires that you create a new allocator table entry using a program name that you define. Alternatively, the object code for this program could be loaded dynamically by using the online loader (OLDR) facility in TPF. Next, you will need to define a Z-command (functional message) to activate this program. When this command was tested at the TPF development lab, command name "ZCPCD" was used. You can determine if you want to add a new entry to program CVAB to associate the command name that you choose to your allocated program name. Alternatively, you could use the ZFMSG command to create a command dynamically to the TPF system and associate the new command with the corresponding program name of the executable code. 3.0 Customizing Diag 08 VM/CP command console interface ________________________________________________________ You need to define the Z-command name. You might want to consider modifying the four-character message identified to correspond to the Z-command name chosen for the application. 4.0 Running Diag 08 VM/CP command console interface ____________________________________________________ To run the VM/CP console interface program, you would enter the Z-command followed by the CP command as the parameter to the Z-command. For example, to query virtual tapes defined to the VM test system from the TPF Prime CRAS, you would enter the following command: ZCPCD Q TAPES The TPF application would pass the "Q TAPES" command to VM and then display the output of the CP command back to the TPF Prime CRAS as the response to the command. 5.0 Notices ________________________ IBM may not offer the products, services, or features discussed in this information in other countries.
