HP Stage/iX Commands
absolute order in the command line history stack, or by name (as a string). The default is
-1, the most recent command. This parameter is optional.
Example
To edit the most recent command beginning with the string `DIS':
STAGEMAN> REDO DIS
To edit command number 10 (absolute) on the command history stack, enter:
STAGEMAN> REDO 10
To edit the second-to-last command on the stack (one command before the most recent),
enter:
STAGEMAN> REDO -2
SET
The SET command is used to designate a particular HP Stage/iX staging area for use on the
next boot. When a staging area is in use, it is considered “active”. The process of
“activating” a staging area requires that the system be re-booted (using the ISL> START
command). The SET command is used to designate which staging area should be used on
the next reboot. On each subsequent reboot (START) the system will automatically use the
same staging area as was used on the previous reboot, unless the system manager changes
the default by using the SET command.
You must specify the name of a validated HP Stage/iX staging area to the SET command.
The SET command will accept the string “BASE” to indicate that the system should be
booted from the BASE on the next reboot.
The SET command cannot be abbreviated.
Syntax
SET [[STAGE=]
stage_name
]
Parameters
[[STAGE=]stage_name (required)
The name of the HP Stage/iX staging area to be used for the SET. This must be a legal
staging area name for a pre-existing staging area.
Staging area names are case sensitive. “STAGE1” is not equivalent to “stage1” or “Stage1”.
Example
STAGEMAN> SET STAGE=new_staging_area
SETDEFAULT (SETD)
The SETDEFAULT command sets the default values for a particular file to be used by the
STAGEFILE command. For example: the SETDEFAULT command can be used to the set the
defaults for NL.PUB.SYS, so that whenever an NL is staged using the STAGEFILE command,
the values for all of the STAGEFILE parameters can be omitted.
