The command for the SYSGEN utility is SYSGEN. SYSGEN has four positional parameters:
SYSGEN [ basegroup]
[ ,newgroup ]
[ ,inputfile ]
[ ,outputfile ]
|
The basegroup parameter specifies the group in the SYS account that contains the configuration data file
set to be used or changed. The default base group is the group used to
boot the system (usually CONFIG). The default base group is the group specified
in the initial system load (ISL) START command line. (For information on specifying configuration groups
during START, refer to Chapter 3 “System Startup Functions”)
If you attempt to specify a nonexistent group using the BASEGROUP command, SYSGEN issues the following message:
**error** group groupname does not exist |
The newgroup parameter specifies the group used to store data. If
you do not specify newgroup, SYSGEN stores any configuration changes in the base
group by default.
If the group specified by newgroup already exists, SYSGEN asks, at keep time, whether
or not it should overwrite that group with new information. At keep
time, if the user does a KEEP with no parameters, SYSGEN keeps the current base group
unless newgroup was specified, in which case the group given is used.
More information on using the KEEP command is provided later in this chapter.
The inputfile parameter specifies the file designator of the file
for command input. The formal file designator is SYSGIN. The default is $STDINX.
The outputfile parameter specifies the file designator of the file
for SYSGEN output. The formal file designator is SYSGOUT. The default is $STDLIST.
When using parameters with the SYSGEN command, place them immediately following the command:
:SYSGEN[basegroup][,newgroup][,inputfile]
[,outputfile] |
When using parameters with RUN SYSGEN.PUB.SYS, you must specify them in the phrase INFO=" ":
RUN SYSGEN.PUB.SYS;INFO=
"[basegroup][,newgroup]&
[,inputfile][,outputfile]" |
Example 4-1 illustrates activating SYSGEN's global
module. Activate the SYSGEN global module by entering the command SYSGEN or by entering RUN SYSGEN.PUB.SYS.
