Activating Changes Made with a Format File

If you have made changes to a format file, you must generate a new class definition statement (CDS) file that contains those changes.

Generating a New Class Definition Statement File for a TME Adapter

To generate a new CDS file for a TME adapter, simply distribute a profile containing the changed format file to the appropriate endpoints. The shipped default profile contains the appropriate commands to automatically perform the following actions:

1.Stop the adapter.

2.Generate a new CDS file from the distributed format file.

3.Restart the adapter.

These commands can be viewed for the profile being distributed by selecting

Actions in the Edit Adapter window of the ACF.

Generating a New Class Definition Statement File for a Non-TME Adapter

To generate a new CDS file for a non-TME adapter, you must perform the following tasks:

1.Stop the adapter.

NetWare log file

See “TECADNW4.NLM” on page 61. OS/2 See “Stopping the Adapter” on page 81.

UNIX log file

See “Stopping the Adapter” on page 102.

Windows event log

See “Stopping the Adapter” on page 120.

Windows NT event log

See “Stopping the Adapter” on page 135.

2.Generate a new CDS file using the following commands. The logfile_gencds, nw4gencds.nlm, os2gncds.exe, and nt_gencds.exe programs are located in the bin subdirectory of the directory where you installed the adapter. The format file is in the appropriate language subdirectory in the etc directory where you installed the adapter (see “Format File Location” on page 145 for the appropriate language subdirectory). Specify the appropriate path to create the new CDS file in the etc directory.
