Chapter 450
Command-Line Management Utilities
The command-line management utilities from SNAplus (snapstart,
snapstop, snaplu, snapconn, and snapservice) have been replaced by
other programs.
snapstart and snapstop Commands
The command snapstart and snapstop daemons, which start and stop
the SNA software, have been replaced by the commands snap start and
snap stop. For more information about these commands, refer to the
chapter on starting the SNAplus2 software in the HP-UX SNAplus2
Administration Guide.
If you are upgrading from a stand-alone version of SNAplus, starting the
SNA software no longer starts the local node and connectivity
components automatically, as it did in SNAplus. To start these
components as soon as the SNA software is started, use the following
procedure:
Step 1. Modify the node configuration file to define connectivity components as
“initially active”; this ensures that the components are started
automatically as soon as the node is started. If an LS is defined as
“initially active,” the DLC and port that it uses are also started
automatically.
Step 2. Create a shell script that issues snap start followed by
snapadmin init_node; this starts the SNA software and then starts the
local node. Use this script to start the SNA software, instead of issuing
the snap start command directly.
The other snapstart and snapstop commands, which start and stop
connectivity components, have been replaced by start_* and stop_*
commands issued to the command-line administration program
snapadmin. For more information about this program, refer to the
HP-UX SNAplus2 Administration Guide.
snaplu,snapconn, and snapservice Commands
These commands have been replaced by commands issued to the
command-line administration program snapadmin, as follows:
