Creating the Message File
Creating the Message File
To enable SNA Transport to send alerts (generated by itself or an
operator) to NetView, you must create the message file the alerts will be
stored in. To create the file, type this command at the MPE system
prompt:
BUILD
NodeName .PUB.SYS;MSG
NodeName is the name of the configured SNA node the alerts are to be
sent to.
You must create a message file for each SNA node you will want alerts
to be sent to. Once a message file is created, it is removed only if you
delete it specifically.
