Neoview Command Interface (NCI) Guide (R2.5)

ALTER DS CPULIST Command
The ALTER DS CPULIST command add or alters the list of processing nodes (CPUs) where the
NDCS service can start NDCS servers for the specified data source. The CPULIST attribute is
stored as an environment value of type ENV_CPULIST.
Syntax
ALTER DS data-source-name, CPULIST "cpu-value"
cpu-value is:
SYSTEM_DEFAULT | num1[, num2]...[, num15] | range(num1-num2)
data-source-name
is the name of the data source. data-source-name is case-sensitive and cannot be the
asterisk (*) wild card.
CPULIST "SYSTEM_DEFAULT"
specifies that the Neoview software determines the node utilization automatically.
CPULIST "num1[, num2]...[, num15]"
is a list of processing nodes (CPUs) to be used for NDCS servers running in the specified
data source. Enter a list of individual CPU numbers separated by commas.
CPULIST "range(num1-num2)"
is a range of CPU numbers. You must enter the numbers of a range in ascending order. If
you do not, only the first number of the range is used. For example, in the range 10–4, only
CPU 10 is used.
Considerations
• To run this command in SQL mode, you must first run the CMDOPEN command. This
command does not run in CS mode.
• The command requires an SQL terminator.
• Only users associated with roles that have OPERATOR privileges can execute this command.
For more information, see the “ADD USER Command” (page 158) or “ALTER USER
Command” (page 167).
• The wild card (*) is not supported for the data source name, and the data source name is
case-sensitive.
• If the CPULIST attribute exists, this command modifies it according to the new values.
• If the CPULIST attribute does not exist, this command inserts the new values.
• For more information about processing-node numbering, see the HP Database Manager
(HPDM) User Guide.
Example
This command sets a range of processing nodes for the DDLTestDS data source:
SQL>alter ds DDLTestDS, cpulist "range(0-10)";
