Customizing Your Product › Configure the Startup Procedure

Configure the Startup Procedure

The $NSINIT procedure is executed during initialization and is designed for actions specific to CA NetMaster NM for SNA.

Review the $NSINIT procedure for the following purposes:

• To enable Tivoli NetView operator command emulation, if necessary.
• To set up NTS.

Note: $NSINIT is the default procedure. If you copy this procedure and you customize it, identify your customized procedure in the SNAINIT parameter group.

Enable Tivoli NetView Operator Command Emulation

You can use Tivoli NetView operator commands in CA NetMaster NM for SNA.

To enable Tivoli NetView operator command emulation

1. Add the following statement to the $NSINIT member.

   EXEC $VWCALL OPT=INIT
   

   Alternatively, if this statement already exists, remove the comment symbols (-*) beside the statement.

2. After you update your ..., enter the following command at the command prompt:

   unload proc=$NSINIT at OCS (=o)
   

   Your $NSINIT procedure is unloaded.

3. Action the SNAINIT parameter group for the changes to take effect.

Note: You can also use an NCCF-like facility that lets you execute some existing Tivoli NetView REXX procedures. For information about how to use this facility, see the NetMaster REXX Guide.
