Purpose
Starts the command profile editor batch utility. For additional
information about the command profile editor, see the chapter on using the command profile editor in the NetView Management Console User's Guide.
Parameters
- cpebatch
- The name of a command that invokes the executable command profile editor
utility program.
- filename
- This is a required parameter. If the -O option is specified,
this is the name of the output file that is created by the utility. If
the -I option is specified, this is the name of the input file that is
read by the utility.
- -O
- Generates a response file from the current commands database. The
filename specifies the name of the file generated by the
utility. If this is not a fully-qualified name, the file is
generated in the current directory. If no name is specified, the
default name of IHSECPED.RSP is used. The -O
or -I parameter must be specified.
- -I
- Specifies a response file to be used to update the current commands
database. Unless the filename is fully-qualified, it is assumed
to reside in the current directory. The -O or -I
parameter must be specified.
- -U loginID
-
If the user ID is not present in the command line, you will be
prompted by the batch utility to provide this information. The user ID
must match your NetView(R) user ID.
The login user ID must have administrative authority.
- -P password
- The password for the login user ID specified by the -U
parameter. There is no default value. If a password is not
present in the command line, you will be prompted by the batch utility to
provide this information. This password must match your NetView
password. If a value is not specified, the command profile editor
utility tries to sign on to the topology server with a null password. This is an optional parameter.
- -L1 log file
- The name of the error log file to which you want to log informational and
error messages. The default is IHSECPED.LOG. If the file
is not fully-qualified, it is put in the following directories:
- For Windows(R):
%BINDIR%\TDS\server\log
- For UNIX(R):
$BINDIR/TDS/server/log
The error log file is continually appended, so that multiple runs of the
utility are logged in the same file.
This is an optional parameter.
- -V
- Forces the utility into verify mode. The response file is processed
and compared with the data in the topology server, but no changes are made to the actual topology server database. This is an optional parameter.
- -M
- Overrides the default add mode of the utility and forces the utility into
modify mode. This enables information to be replaced in or deleted from
the existing database. This is an optional parameter.
- -G
- Overrides the default add mode of the utility and forces the utility into
modify mode. This enables updates to be made to command sets and
profiles by adding to them without replacing existing information. This
is an optional parameter.
