and is set under the Maint/Misc configuration menu.
PTX_SETUP The trigger command. Must appear in capital letters.

<category – > This selects which category or type of command is
being entered: CONFIG, DISK_IO, ENGINE,
FORMAT or TEST_CHK. All categories must appear
in capital letters and must be followed by a dash (–).
<parameter;value:> Parameter and value pair for the current category. See
the listing of categories, valid parameters and ranges of
values beginning on page 3–4. The parameter and
value must be separated by a semicolon (;) and must
be terminated by either a colon (:) or a period (.).
The colon signifies that more parameter/value pairs for
the current category are to follow; therefore, more than
one parameter/value pair may be given for the current
category. The period denotes the end of parameter/
value pairs for the given category.
Parameter/value pairs must not exceed 25 characters
with the semicolon and terminator included.
