Using Console Manager From the C3 Interface › Logging On To a Serviced System

Logging On To a Serviced System

To log on to a serviced system

1. Click the right mouse button on the system that you want to log into.
2. Choose Login from the popup menu.
3. Choose the connection type you want to use to perform the login.

1. When the DECterm window appears, log on in the usual way.

The node name of the serviced system is appended to the end of the command before it is executed. The node name can be different from the system name defined in the configuration database. To specify the node names for your serviced systems, see Chapter 9, “Customizing Console Manager”.

The Login option uses the following logical names to determine the command that is to be executed:

• CONSOLE$SETHOST_COMMAND, which specifies the DECnet SET HOST command to be executed. The default is SET HOST.
• CONSOLE$TELNET_COMMAND, which specifies the TELNET command to be executed. The default is TELNET.
• CONSOLE$RLOGIN_COMMAND, which specifies the RLOGIN command to be executed. The default is RLOGIN.

You can change these logical names. For example, you could change CONSOLE$SETHOST_COMMAND to SET HOST/LOG.

To redefine these logical names copy the template file

SYS$STARTUP:CONSOLE$PRIVATE_SETUP.TEMPLATE

to

CONSOLE$PRIVATE_SETUP.COM

and edit it to reflect your individual requirements. The Console Manager startup procedure checks to see if

CONSOLE$PRIVATE_SETUP.COM

exists and executes it automatically.
