SYSGEN
The base for configuration changes or tape creation can be specified on the SYSGEN
command with the base group. The group name to which the configuration is to be kept
with a SYSGEN KEEP command can be specified on the SYSGEN command line with the
newgroup parameter.
Input for the configurator interaction can be redirected from a file with the SYSGEN
command inputfile parameter. Any output during the interaction can be redirected to a file
with the SYSGEN command outputfile parameter. In addition, input and output can be
redirected with file equations using the formal designators SYSGIN and SYSGOUT,
respectively, prior to entering the SYSGEN command.
Use
This command is available in a session and programmatically. It is not available from a
job. Pressing
Break suspends the execution of this command. Entering the RESUME
command continues the execution.
Examples
The following four examples perform the same action. Each causes the group CONFIG.SYS
to be used as the basis for configuration data, the group NEWCONF.SYS to be used for any
KEEP command without a group specification, the file $STDIN to be used for input and the
file $STDLIST to be used for output.
