*ADD
|
|
|
|
Allows the addition of hardware to the running system. Hardware may
|
|
be controllers, CI disks, NI networks, and CPUs. In addition, memory
|
|
may be added to the system with the MEMORY keyword. The first
|
|
address is the lower bound, the second is the upper bound. The
|
|
default input radix for the addresses is decimal. to change the
|
|
input radix, prefix the number with a "#". An address may also be
|
|
specified with the "K" or "P" suffix, e.g., ADD MEMORY 256K TO 512K.
|
|
|
|
*AUTO-CONFIGURE
|
|
|
|
Initiate the process which causes automatic configuration of the
|
|
disks and tapes on the system. This command is useful when equipment
|
|
was not present (powered off when the system was orgionally
|
|
bootstraped), e.g., field service was working on the gear. It can
|
|
also be used in the event that a drive was missed at bootstrap time,
|
|
e.g., a drive address thumb wheel was miss selected on a tape drive
|
|
at boot time or a lap plug had been pulled from an RP06 disk drive.
|
|
|
|
*HELP
|
|
|
|
|
|
HELP allows you to display the function and format of any CONFIG
|
|
command. The format is;
|
|
|
|
CONFIG> HELP keyword
|
|
|
|
where keyword can be any one of the following CONFIG commands:
|
|
|
|
ADD AUTO-CONFIGURE HELP LOAD
|
|
REMOVE SET SHOW SHUTDOWN
|
|
SNAPSHOT SUSPEND
|
|
|
|
*LOAD
|
|
|
|
Allows the loading of microcode into the CPUs, DX-20 controllers for
|
|
tape drives and disk drives, and CI or NI network interface
|
|
controllers.
|
|
|
|
*REMOVE
|
|
|
|
This command is the exact opposite of the ADD command. This command
|
|
will dynamically remove hardware from a running system. The options
|
|
are the same as that for the ADD command.
|
|
|
|
*SET
|
|
|
|
Allows the setting of certain parameters which control an action
|
|
automatically when some event occurs. The options are:
|
|
|
|
1. AUTO-RELOAD
|
|
Enable automatic reload of the monitor. This command allows the
|
|
monitor to use the BOOTXT command string to automatically reload
|
|
the monitor when it crashes or is taken down. Note there are
|
|
other conditions that will prevent such an auto reload; this
|
|
command is a master enable. See also SET NO RELOAD.
|
|
|
|
2. BOOT-TEXT command-string
|
|
Set the boot text command string to the specified value. The
|
|
boot text command string is the command string passed to the
|
|
bootstrap on an automatic monitor reload. Since the bootstrap
|
|
interprets a space as an end-of-command character, multiple
|
|
commands may be specified on the same line by separating the
|
|
commands with spaces. The command string starts with the first
|
|
non-space, non-tab character after the keyword "BOOT-TEXT" and
|
|
ends with the end of line. A typical use of this command might
|
|
be:
|
|
SET BOOT-TEXT /D DSKA:SYSTEM.EXE[1,4]
|
|
|
|
3. DUMP stopcd-type
|
|
Causes the monitor to take continuable dumps after the specified
|
|
stopcd type.
|
|
|
|
4. IGNORE unit
|
|
Causes the monitor to ignore "online" interrupts fron the
|
|
specified unit.
|
|
|
|
5. KLINIK
|
|
Sets KLINIK line parameters on the specified CPUs. A carriage
|
|
return after the KLINIK keyword will enter the sub-command dialog
|
|
for the specified KLINIK parameters.
|
|
|
|
6. MICROCODE
|
|
Enable the automatic reload of microcodes by the monitor. This
|
|
command allows the monitor to reload microcodes on the CPU(s) or
|
|
controller devices as well as network devices such as the CI and
|
|
NI.
|
|
|
|
7. NO
|
|
Negates the effect of any of the other SET keywords.
|
|
|
|
|
|
*SHOW
|
|
|
|
Displays information about the current system configuration. Options
|
|
are;
|
|
|
|
BOOT-TEXT HARDWARE-CONFIGURATION KLINIK STOPCODE-FLAGS
|
|
|
|
*SHUTDOWN
|
|
|
|
Take the system down with an RLD stopcode and reload it. Before
|
|
doing so, CONFIG asks the operator for the reason for the reload and
|
|
puts the address of the resulting string in AC 0. When looking at a
|
|
dump from an RLD stopcode, the reason the dump was taken can be
|
|
determined by examining user AC 0.
|
|
|
|
*SNAPSHOT
|
|
|
|
Take a continuable stopcode dump using the CI7 stopcode and continue
|
|
the monitor. Before doing so, CONFIG asks the operator for the
|
|
reason for the snapshot and puts the address of the resulting string
|
|
in AC 0. When looking at a dump taken from a CI7 stopcode, the
|
|
reason the dump was taken can be determined by examining user AC 0.
|
|
|
|
*SUSPEND
|
|
|
|
Initiate the process used to suspend system operations and write a
|
|
system sleep dump file. this dump file may be later reloaded with
|
|
the BOOT /REBOOT switch and the system operation continued.
