Hitachi MK-96RD647-01 manual Using FCU from the Command Line Unix

Note: Each parameter must be separated with one or more “space” character(s).

Note: One data set information must be specified in one line.

Note: 999 information can be specified in the multiple volume definition file.

Using FCU from the Command Line (UNIX)

FCU can be used without the GUI to perform FX operations. To use FCU without the GUI, you must start FCU using the -nwoption. The FCU options are:

•The -nwoption (nw = no Windows) tells FCU to execute the specified FX operation(s) without displaying the GUI. When you use this option (entered as fcunw or fcu -nw), FCU uses the FCU initiation parameters specified by the param option to perform FX operations. To use FCU without the GUI, the -nwoption is required.

Note: FCU versions 01-01-36 and later for Windows 2000/2003/Windows NT systems do not support the -nwoption.

•The -ncoption (nc = no checking) tells FCU to execute all specified FX operations without requesting confirmation for FCU parameters or existing FXmto target files. If you want to bypass these confirmations, enter -nc. FCU will perform all specified operations and overwrite existing FXmto target files. If you want to check the FCU parameters and the FXmto target file before starting each operation, do not enter -nc.

•The param option (param = FCU parameter definition file) tells FCU whether to use an FCU parameter definition file or a specific FCU initiation parameter set to perform FX operations. The param option must have one of the following three values:

–[blank]. If you want to use the default FCU parameter definition file (fcudata.param located in the current directory) to perform FX operations, leave the param option blank (do not enter anything).

–file_name. If you want to use a different FCU parameter definition file to perform FX operations, enter the filename of the file. Make sure to enter the complete path (absolute or relative path) if the file is not in the current directory.

–-P + parameters. If you want to perform one specific FX operation, enter -Pfollowed by the FCU initiation parameter set (e.g., mto VSN:dataset targetfile No No No) for the desired FX operation.

Note: FCU for UNIX cannot be used by a “signal handler.” If this accidentally happens and memory space is occupied, use kill to cancel the processes, and use ipcrm to delete the shared memory areas that have KEY=0 (refer to OS manuals). Do not issue the following signals to an FCU process (UNIX only):
