Definitions

requestname

Specifies the name of the request to be changed.

command

Specifies the EXEC, program, CP command, or CMS command to be executed when the request runs. If specified on the CA VM:Schedule command line, the command parameters cannot contain parentheses. The maximum command parameter length is 108 characters, including filename, blanks, and punctuation.

The command line is passed to the console stack of the user ID when the program autologs the user ID.

The PROFILE EXEC of any virtual machine that the server autologs must not contain any commands that alter or destroy the line that the server places in the console input buffer (sometimes referred to as the console stack). If this console stack occurs, or the first read to the console is issued prematurely, the scheduled request cannot execute as expected, even though the product autologs the virtual machine successfully. For more information about the console stack, refer to the CMS user guide appropriate for your site.

The PROFILE EXEC of any virtual machine that CA VM:Schedule autologs must not prompt for parameters when the virtual machine is running disconnected.
