HP Tandem Advanced Command Language (TACL)
HP Tandem Advanced Command Language
(TACL)
The TACL product is the command interface to the NonStop Kernel operating system.
In addition to providing full command-interpreter facilities, you can program the TACL
interface to help you manage your system in these ways:
Automate subsystem startup and shutdown procedures. For example, you can use
TACL statements to initialize Pathway, the TMF subsystem, the TRANSFER
system, and other subsystems.
Run utilities and issue commands with either a fixed set of commands or a flexible
set that you can tailor at run time.
Create a customized environment that simplifies commonly performed tasks for
users.
TMFCOM
TMFCOM allows you to enter commands that initiate communication with TMF,
request various TMF operations, and terminate communication with TMF.
Web ViewPoint
Use Web ViewPoint, a browser-based product, to access the Event Viewer, Object
Manager, and Performance Monitor subsystems. Web ViewPoint monitors and
displays EMS events; identifies and lists all supported subsystems; manages NonStop
server subsystems and user applications in a secure, automated, and customizable
way; monitors and graphs performance attributes and trends; investigates and displays
most active system processes; and offers simple navigation and a point-and-click
command interface.
ViewPoint
Use ViewPoint to display event messages about current or past events occurring
anywhere in the network on a set of block-mode events screens. The messages can
be errors, failures, warnings, and requests for operator actions. The events screens
allow operators to monitor significant occurrences or problems in the network as they
occur. Critical events or events requiring immediate action are highlighted.
