9.1.2 Automatic Operation
A wait function, VMTWAITR, runs the VM Data Transfer Program
in automatic mode. VMTWAITR allows the VM Data Transfer
Program to be run as a disconnected virtual machine. To set
up this environment, the PROFILE EXEC should execute
VMTWAITR. You can use the sample VMTPROF to do this. The
virtual machine must operate with the CP option RUN set on,
which is done by placing the command CP SET RUN ON in the
PROFILE EXEC.
In this configuration, when the virtual machine running the
VM Data Transfer Program is logged on--either manually or
via the AUTOLOG/XAUTOLOG command--the VMTWAITR EXEC starts
and waits for the following events to occur:
o A VM Account or VM Monitor file arrives in the reader
if the WAIT FOR AVAILABLE SPOOL FILES? parameter on
the Common Transfer Parameter menu is set to Y (Yes).
o A CP SMSG command is received if the WAIT FOR SPECIAL
MESSAGES? parameter on the Common Transfer Parameter
menu is set to Y (Yes).
If the VMTWAITR EXEC is waiting and you want to terminate the
EXEC, enter the the immediate command, STOP or IMMDSTOP, from
the command line.
Commands for controlling VMTWAITR after it has been started
are discussed in section 9.1.2.1 of this guide. VMTWAITR
parameters are discussed in section 10.3 of this guide.
