HP Instant Capacity User's Guide for Versions 8.x

CLI Support on OpenVMS
OpenVMS provides a CLI command interface to the Instant Capacity software. The HP-UX
command syntax can be implemented using foreign command symbols. The OpenVMS DCL
ICAP command provides DCL command support.
HP-UX Style Commands
The HP-UX command syntax can be used on OpenVMS systems by defining foreign command
symbols to the iCAP images. Add the three symbol declarations below to your LOGIN.COM file
or to the SYLOGIN file to define commands that use the HP-UX syntax.
$ icapmodify :== $ICAP_MODIFY
$ icapnotify :== $ICAP_NOTIFY
$ icapstatus :== $ICAP_STAT
Command options are specified as described in the HP-UX manpages for each command.
OpenVMS Command Mapping
The following table shows the mapping of the HP-UX iCAP commands and their OpenVMS
equivalents.
