casutl

An Enterprise Server utility program.

Syntax:

casutl [/res-name]
       [/sprototype:host:port]
       [/lservername]
       [/n]
       [/xfiles-to-switch]
       [/ccurrent-directory]
       [/uuserid]
       [/ppassword]
       [/ggroup]
       [/z[userid]]
							[/f{[e|d|s]}]
       [/h{[e|d|c]}]
       [/te{[ tracelist],[aux],[all],[ims]}]
       [/td{[ tracelist],[aux],[all],[ims]}]
       [/tl]
       [/a{[amax|admin]=nnn}]
       [/w{[l|p|f]}]

Parameters:

Table 1. Connection parameters
/r`es-name`	Connects to an enterprise server with the specified name, `es-name`. Restriction: When calling casutl from either JCL or from a Web service (that is, when you are running casutl within a SEP), it is not possible to use the /r option to connect to the server. In such cases, you must use either /s or /l to connect to the server.
/s`prototype`:`host`:`port`	Uses the specified URL to locate the enterprise server to connect to. For example: stcp:localhost:9003
/l`servername`	Looks up the specified `servername` to find the enterprise server to connect to.

Note: If neither /r , /s or /l is specified, this defaults to /rESDEMO[64].

Table 2. Other parameters
/n	Creates a new console log file, console.log. The contents of the current console.log are saved to a new file, console.`nnn`_switch_date_time.
/x`files-to-switch`	Switches the active aux trace, dump and/or HSF files. `files-to-switch` specifies the files to switch. This can be one or more of the following single-character arguments: t Stands for trace. Switches between casauxta.rec and casauxtb.rec. d Stands for dump. Switches between casdumpa.rec and casdumpb.rec. h Stands for HSF. Switches between cashsf-a.csv and cashsf-b.csv.
/c`current-directory`	Sets an internal FS current directory.
/u`userid`	An authorized user. This user must exist within the security domains of both: the enterprise server and MF Directory Server. That is, the security configuration for both enterprise server and Directory Server must be able to verify the user credentials supplied. Note that enterprise server and Directory Server may be using different security managers. Therefore, it may be necessary that the user is defined in more than one security repository. In order to update Directory Server status information, within the Directory Server domain, the user must have modify permission on the appropriate enterprise server resource within the Servers resource class. In order to successfully run the casstop command, within the enterprise server's security domain, the user must have alter permissions on the casstop resource within the OPERCMDS resource class. Note: This is required only if you have configured security.
/p`password`	Specifies an authorization password.
/g`group`	Specifies the sign-on group to use when running commands.
/z[`userid`]	The parameter enables you to pass user credentials through an interactive prompt or as a redirection from the console, the `userid` is optional. This can be used to pass credentials stored in the Vault Facility. Note: Micro Focus recommends that you use this option in preference to /u and /p.
[/f{[e\|d\|s]}]	e Enables Force Phase In d Disables Force Phase In s Show the current state of the Force Phase In option.
/h{[e\|d\|c]}	e Enables HSF. d Disables HSF. c Closes the HSF file that is currently active.
/te{[ `tracelist`],[aux],[all],[ims]}	Enables trace flags. Where: `tracelist` is a comma-delimited list of trace flags. This can also include the following keywords: aux Aux trace. all All trace flags (not including aux). ims All ims trace flags. See the Examples section.
/td{[ `tracelist`],[aux],[all],[ims]}	Disables trace flags. Where: `tracelist` is a comma-delimited list of trace flags. This can also include the following keywords: aux Aux trace. all All trace flags (not including aux). ims All ims trace flags. See the Examples section.
/tl	List of valid trace flags that can be used in `tracelist` on the /te and /td options.
/a{[amax\|admin]=nnn}	Change the number of default SEPs or admin SEPs: `amax` Default SEPs `admin` Default admin SEPs Note: nnn is an integer between 1 and 999.
/w{[l\|p\|f]}	All changes to timeouts, trace flags, and memory strategy will be applied to: l Only the local region. p All members of a PAC except the regions where local changes have been made. f All members of a PAC.

Dependencies:

You must start the enterprise server before you can issue a casutl command.

Comments:

The /r, /s and /l options are alternatives and are mutually exclusive.

Examples

The following examples demonstrate a few scenarios where you can use casutl. MYREGION is the name of your enterprise server instance.

To switching the active trace file, use the following command:

casutl /rMYREGION /xt

To switch both the active dump and HSF files at the same time, use the following command:

casutl /rMYREGION /xdh

To start a new console log, use the following command:

casutl /rMYREGION /n

This creates the new log file and also creates a backup copy of the existing console.log as console.nnn_switch_date_time.

To enable aux,api,scp and kcp, use the following command:

casutl /teaux,api,scp,kcp

To enable all trace flags:

castul /teall

To disable all ims trace flags:

casutl /tdims

To dynamically modify the number of application execution processes to 5 for the duration of the current region instance:

casutl /rMYREGION /aamax=05
