Modifying System File Configurations
Entering the SYSFILE Configurator
165
There can be only one disk and one tape IPL, each of which is replaced by its image name. Both IPL files must
reside on the tape.
To replace an IPL image, enter the command and the image and file names:
sysfile>RIPL imagename filename
Replacing the Native Mode Library
The RNMLIB command (abbreviated RN) replaces the system NM library that resides in NL.PUB.SYS. The
RNMLIB command has the following parameters:
RNMLIB (RN) [FILE =]filename
FILE is the file name of the library to replace the current one. If the file name is not fully qualified, it defaults
to the current group and account. If the file name does not exist, an error occurs.
To replace an existing NM library, enter the following command format:
sysfile>RNMLIB filename.group.account
Replacing a System Program
The RSPROG command (abbreviated RS) replaces an existing system program. RSPROG has the following
parameters:
RSPROG (RS) [PROG =]programname [FILE =]filename
PROG specifies an existing program name. If the name entered does not exist, an error occurs.
FILE specifies the file name to replace the specified system program. If the file name is not fully qualified
with group and account name, it defaults to the current group and account. If the file name does not exist, an
error occurs.
Enter the command, an existing program name, and the fully qualified file name to replace the system
program:
sysfile>RSPROG programname.group.account filename.group.account
Use the SHOW command (SH SPROG) to display all the system programs maintained by the configuration.
CAUTION Do not use the SYSFILE> RSPROG command to rename Hewlett-Packard supplied MPE/iX HP
e3000 system files. A renamed system file can corrupt your system during an update. This
problem can occur if you have third party software installed on your system and you have
renamed some system files to use this software.
Use the SHOW command in SYSFILE to ensure that all Hewlett-Packard supplied system files
have retained their original name. System filenames in both columns should be identical. If
they are not identical, rename the files in the second column to the filename in the first
column.
Using a Segmented Library File as CMSL
The CMSL command (abbreviated CM) specifies an SL file to be used as the compatibility mode SL. CMSL has
the following parameter:
CMSL (CM) [SL =] slname
The slname parameter is an SL file name. If the SL file name is not fully qualified, it defaults to the current
group and account. If an SL name is not specified, the default is SL.PUB.SYS.
