C Parameter Name C Parameter Value Command Line Specification
channel /CHANNEL_NAME=name
flags RTR_NO_FLAGS [none] [D]
pmsg, msglen,
msgfmt
1
[message definition parameter list with positional
qualifiers. ]
evtnum 42 /EVENT_NUMBER=42
rcpspc "workstat*" /RECIPIENT_SPEC="workstat*"

The actual values used for
pmsg
,
msglen
and
msgfmt
are based upon the message definition you specify as a
command line parameter.
The command server uses message data specified as command line parameter
values to generate a record containing the message data (for the
pmsg
parameter),
the message length (for the
msglen
parameter), and a record type description (for
the
msgfmt
parameter).
Qualifiers
/CHANNEL_NAME=channel-name
/CHANNEL_NAME=RTR$DEFAULT_CHANNEL
Specifies the channel for which the operation is to be performed.
The command server uses a combination of the
channel_name
and the window
from which the call was issued to uniquely identify which channel to use.
channel_name
is not case sensitive.
The default for channel-name is RTR$DEFAULT_CHANNEL.
/CLUSTER
/NOCLUSTER (D)
Specifies that the command is executed on all the nodes in the cluster.
If neither
/NODE
nor
/CLUSTER
is specified then the command is executed on the
nodes specified by the latest
SET ENVIRONMENT
command. If no
SET ENVIRONMENT
command has been entered then the command is executed only on the node where
the command was issued.
Note: In environments that do not support clustering, use of the /CLUSTER
qualifier will cause the relevant command to be executed on the local node only.
/EVENT_NUMBER=user-event-number
The user event number associated with this broadcast, in the range of
RTR_EVTNUM_USERBASE to RTR_EVTNUM_USERMAX (i.e. 0 to 250).
/FORMAT[=fmt-string]
/NOFORMAT (D)
Specifies that a format string should be sent with this message.
If /FORMAT is specified without
fmt-string
, RTR automatically generates a
format string. The format string is generated using the parameters given for
the qualifiers /SIGNED, /UNSIGNED, /STRING and /LENGTH. The following
table shows permitted values for these qualifiers when using /FORMAT without
fmt-string
.
