Managing SNAplus2 from NetView

Using SPCF

To provide security, you can set up the SNAplus2 configuration so that only certain types of commands are permitted from SPCF. For example, you can permit remote users to issue query_* commands, but not to activate or deactivate SNAplus2 components. You can control access separately for each of the following groups of commands:

•define_*, set_*, delete_*, add_*, and remove_* commands, and also init_node

•query_* commands

•“Action” commands: start_*, stop_*, activate_*, deactivate_*, and also aping, initialize_session_limit, change_session_limit, and reset_session_limit

For more information about setting up security options for SPCF, refer to the description of the define_rcf_access command in HP-UX SNAplus2 Administration Command Reference.

Examples of SPCF Commands

The following example shows how you could issue the

define_lu_0_to_3 command using SPCF. This example uses backslash characters to indicate uppercase letters in the two character strings LU$01 and PU2. There is no need to make the characters in the constant name 3270_display_model_2 uppercase, because the snapadmin program accepts this string in lowercase.

runcmd sp=myspname, appl=node, define_lu_0_to_3, lu_name=\l\u$01, nau_address=1, pu_name=\p\u2, lu_model=3270_display_model_2

The following example shows how you could issue the

query_lu_0_to_3 command using SPCF. The -aoption indicates “return all entries,” so there is no need to specify an LU name or PU name. The -doption indicates “return detailed information,” so there is no need to specify this using the list_options parameter. These two options act in exactly the same way as for the snapadmin program.

runcmd sp=myspname, appl=node, -a -d query_lu_0_to_3
