Modifying System File Configurations
Entering the SYSFILE Configurator
Configuring a Message Catalog
The RCAT command (abbreviated RC) configures the message catalog to be used on the
target system. RCAT has the following parameter:
RCAT (RC) [NAME =]
filename
The system message catalog contains all the system and subsystem messages. It is
retained under a known file name (CATALOG.PUB.SYS).
NAME specifies a catalog file name. If the name is not fully qualified, it defaults to the
current group and account.
To replace the default catalog name CATALOG.PUB.SYS with a new catalog name, enter
RCAT and the fully qualified file name:
sysfile>RCAT
filename.group.account
If the new message catalog file was not previously created, an error occurs.
NOTE For information on how to modify an existing message catalog, refer to the
Message Catalogs Programmer’s Guide.
Replacing a CMSL Segment
The RCMSL command (abbreviated RCM) replaces a segment in the CMSL. RCMSL has the
following parameters:
RCMSL (RCM) [SEG =]
segment-name
[FILE =]
filename
[MODE = S ]
[ C ]
[ P ]
[ U ]
SEG specifies a new segment name of maximum eight characters. If a nonexistent segment
name is specified, an error occurs.
FILE specifies a file name to be added to the CMSL. The
filename
parameter can be fully
qualified with group and account. If not, it defaults to the current group and account. If the
file name cannot be found, an error occurs.
MODE indicates where the added SL segment is to reside. It expects one of the four options
listed below. Other input causes an error.
P Declares a segment to be a permanently allocated user segment. This
parameter performs the same function as the ALLOCATE command.
S Declares a segment to be a permanently allocated system intrinsic
segment (in virtual memory).
C Declares a segment to be a core-resident system intrinsic segment.
U Defaults if MODE is not specified.
Use the LCMSL command to display the segments maintained in the CMSL.
