RTR Command Line Interface

Each RTR API call can be invoked at CLI level using the RTR command utility. This is provided to facilitate testing. For example, clients may be tested before the corresponding servers have been written by manually entering the server's API calls.

6.1 Introduction

The commands that invoke the example, the rtr_accept_tx( ) CLI-level.

RTR API calls are similar to the call names. For call is invoked using CALL RTR_ACCEPT_TX at the

Where possible, command qualifiers have been given the same names as the parameters to the API calls. See the Application Programmer's Reference Manual for details about the parameters to API calls.

Most commands can be issued on remote nodes by using the /NODE=node-listor /CLUSTER qualifiers, or by preceding them with the SET ENVIRONMENT command to specify nodes where commands are to be executed. Commands such as DEFINE KEY are intended for local execution only.

Output from each command can be redirected to another device or file using the /OUTPUT qualifier.

Because the RTR command utility keeps parameter checking to a minimum, ``what if'' questions can be answered quickly without having to write test programs.

Note

In a mixed RTR Version 2 and Version 3 environment, you cannot execute commands remotely with the /NODE qualifier.
