Login Script Commands and Variables
Using NOSWAP
LOGIN always swaps to extended or expanded memory unless NOSWAP is
specified on the command line or in the login script.
If you do not want LOGIN to be temporarily stored in higher memory or on
the workstation’s disk, use the NOSWAP command. NOSWAP prevents
LOGIN from being swapped out of conventional memory.
Then, if the workstation does not have enough memory to handle both
LOGIN and the # command, the # command fails but the rest of the login
script executes as usual.
If you want LOGIN to be swapped out of conventional memory immediately
every time a # command is executed, place the SWAP command in the login
script before the # command.
Additional Information
PAUSE
Use PAUSE to create a pause in the execution of the login script.
Command Format
PAUSE
Using PAUSE
Enter this command in your login script at any point you want a pause to
occur.
You can add PAUSE to the login script following a message so that the user
has time to read the message before it scrolls off the screen.
If you include PAUSE, the message “Strike any key when ready…” appears
on the workstation screen. The LOGIN utility then waits for a key to be
pressed before it executes the rest of the login script.
