MCR SYSMAN SET — VMS 5.4-3

ENVIRONMENT

   Defines the nodes or cluster to which subsequent commands apply.

   Requires OPER or SETPRV privilege on all nodes in the target
   environment.

   Format

     SET ENVIRONMENT

Additional information available:

Qualifiers

Additional information available:

/CLUSTER/NODE/USERNAME

/CLUSTER

   Directs SYSMAN to apply subsequent commands to all nodes in the
   cluster. By default, the management environment is the local
   cluster. Specify a nonlocal cluster by naming one cluster member
   with the /NODE qualifier.

/NODE

      /NODE=(node1,node2,...)

   Specifies that SYSMAN execute subsequent commands on the given
   nodes. If accompanied by the /CLUSTER qualifier, the environment
   becomes the cluster where the given node is a member. A node
   name can be a system name, cluster alias, or logical name.
   However, before you can use logical names to define the command
   environment, you must set up the logical name table SYSMAN$NODE_
   TABLE.

/USERNAME

      /USERNAME=username

   Specifies that this user name should be used for access control
   purposes on another node. SYSMAN uses the current user name if
   none is supplied. The utility prompts for a password whenever a
   new user name is specified.

Examples

   1.  SYSMAN> SET ENVIRONMENT/CLUSTER
       %SYSMAN-I-ENV, Current command environment:
               Clusterwide on local cluster
               Username ALEXIS    will be used on nonlocal nodes

     The commands in this example define the command environment as
     the local cluster. SYSMAN confirms the new environment.

   2.  SYSMAN> SET ENVIRONMENT/NODE=CLACK/CLUSTER
       Remote Password:

       %SYSMAN-I-ENV, Current command environment:
               Clusterwide on remote node CLACK
               Username ALEXIS    will be used on nonlocal nodes

     The command in this example establishes a management
     environment on the cluster where node CLACK is a member. SYSMAN
     prompts for a password because it is a nonlocal environment.

   3.  SYSMAN> SET ENVIRONMENT/NODE=(LESETH,JOSHUA,TORIN)
       %SYSMAN-I-ENV, Current command environment:
               Individual nodes: LESETH,JOSHUA,TORIN
               Username ALEXIS   will be used on nonlocal nodes

     The command in this example defines the management environment
     to be three individual nodes.


   4.  $ CREATE/NAME_TABLE/PARENT=LNM$SYSTEM_DIRECTORY SYSMAN$NODE_TABLE
       $ DEFINE LAVCS SYS1,SYS2,SYS3,SYS4/TABLE=SYSMAN$NODE_TABLE
       $ RUN SYS$SYSTEM:SYSMAN
       SYSMAN> SET ENVIRONMENT/NODE=(LAVCS)
       %SYSMAN-I-ENV, Current command environment:
               Individual nodes: SYS1,SYS2,SYS3,SYS4
               Username ALEXIS   will be used on nonlocal nodes

     The commands in this example set up the logical name table
     SYSMAN$NODE_TABLE, define a logical name (LAVCS), and use the
     logical name to define the command environment.

PROFILE

   Temporarily modifies a user's current privileges and default
   device and directory.

   Format

     SET PROFILE

QualifiersExamples

Qualifiers

Additional information available:

/DEFAULT/PRIVILEGES/VERIFY

/DEFAULT

      /DEFAULT=device:[directory]

   Specifies the default disk device and directory name that the
   system should use in this environment to locate and catalog files.

/PRIVILEGES

      /PRIVILEGES=(priv1,priv2...)

   Specifies the privileges to add to the current privileges. Any
   enhanced privileges must be authorized.

/VERIFY

      /VERIFY
      /NOVERIFY (default)

   Allows you to specify whether you want DCL verification (both
   procedure and image) for future DO commands.

Examples

   1.  SYSMAN> SET PROFILE/DEFAULT=WORK1:[ALEXIS]

     The command in this example changes the default device and
     directory in the user account to directory ALEXIS on device
     WORK1.

   2.  SYSMAN> SET PROFILE/PRIVILEGES=(SYSPRV,CMKRNL)/VERIFY

     The command in this example makes the authorized privileges,
     SYSPRV and CMKRNL, part of the current privileges, and turns
     on DCL verification. The privileges remain in effect until the
     environment changes, you enter another SET PROFILE command, or
     you exit.

TIMEOUT

   Establishes the amount of time SYSMAN waits for a node to respond.
   Once the time limit expires, SYSMAN proceeds to execute the
   command on the next node in the environment.

   Format

     SET TIMEOUT  time

Additional information available:

ParameterExample

Parameter

time
   Specifies a delta time value, which has the following format:

   hh:mm:ss[.cc.]

   This is the amount of time that SYSMAN waits for a node to
   respond. By default, there is no timeout period, so SYSMAN waits
   indefinitely. See the VMS DCL Concepts Manual for a description of
   delta time values.

Example

   SYSMAN> SET TIMEOUT 00:00:30
   %SYSMAN-I-TIMEVAL, timeout value is 00:00:30
   SYSMAN> CONFIGURATION SHOW TIME
   System time on node ASCONA: 19-APR-1990  14:22:33
   %SYSMAN-I-NODERR, error returned from node LUGANO
   %SMI-E-TIMEOUT, remote operation has timed out
   System time on node JOSHUA: 19-APR-1990  14:23:15

     The command in this example establishes a timeout period of 30
     seconds. Because node LUGANO did not respond within 30 seconds,
     SYSMAN displays an error message and proceeds to execute the
     command on the next node in the environment.
