Getting Started
Sending Jobs to a Host
Sending Jobs to a Host
To operate NRJE you must do the following:
• Log on to the HP 3000.
• Optionally define any formal designators you will use.
• Invoke NRJE.
• Issue a SUBMIT command.
Defining Formal Designators
Define formal file designators with a FILE command. You can do this
before you invoke NRJE, or within NRJE. When a formal designator is
used, it must be preceded by an asterisk (*). The asterisk indicates a
reference to a previous FILE command. See the MPE Commands
Reference Manual or the MPE Software Pocket Guide.
CAUTION NRJE uses the files INPUT and OUTPUT for processing internal
messages. Therefore, these files are reserved for use by NRJE and
should not be specified by the user. Use of these files could result in
corrupted user data.
NRJE Command
Invoke NRJE from MPE by issuing the command
:NRJE
Wsid
where Wsid is a workstation identifier. See NRJE in Chapter 3 , “User
Commands.”
When you use NRJE as an MPE command you can omit the workstation
identifier; however, you must use a
Wsid parameter in every command
that refers to a workstation.
Kinds of NRJE Users
NRJE users can perform the following tasks:
• Transmit and receive batch jobs between an HP 3000 serving as a
workstation and a host system. No special HP 3000 user capabilities
are required.
• Control an HP 3000 workstation. NM user capability is required.
Users configured with NM capability can be NRJE managers.
An NRJE manager can do everything a user can do. Some user
commands have NRJE manager extensions.
