369.0. "PCSI$DESTINATION node::disk?" by ZUR01::SCHILLING () Thu Mar 20 1997 03:59


A customer wants to install his products from a central location.
Is there a way to define  PCSI$DESTINATION with Nodename?

In the description PCSI$DESTINATION points only to a target disk.

Thanks

369.1Not supportedSTAR::KRYCKAFri Mar 21 1997 14:287
PCSI$SOURCE can contain a node name for accessing kits located on another node,
but PCSI$DESTINATION (the target location for an install) must refer to a
locally accessible ODS-2 disk to the system that is running the PCSI utility
(ie, from the system that is executing the PRODUCT command).

Therefore, your user will have to log on to each target system (or cluster),
but can access product kits stored in a central location on the network.
369.2Remote Command Execution...XDELTA::HOFFMANSteve, OpenVMS EngineeringTue Apr 01 1997 18:10189
   Out might be able to tweak the following DCL to perform the required
   task...  (The following is a generic tool used to invoke a specified
   command on a remote node -- one could update this procedure, or one
   could specify the appropriate PCSI command directly.  This suggestion
   would likely be based on what Jim mentioned in .1...)

$!	RDECW.COM
$!
$!	RDECW.COM is used to get an application running on a remote node
$!	(over DECnet) and with a DECwindows display aimed back at the
$!	originating node.
$!
$!	The following command options or formats -- searched in order --
$!	are available.  Each command template is followed by an example of
$!	the template.
$!
$!	    = To activate a DECwindows terminal on the remote node:
$!		$ @SYS$LOGIN:RDECW    <node>	#DECTERM
$!		$ @SYS$LOGIN:RDECW    XDELTA	#DECTERM
$!
$!	    = To activate an image on the specified remote node...
$!		$ @SYS$LOGIN:RDECW    <node>	<image>
$!		$ @SYS$LOGIN:RDECW    XDELTA	SYS$SYSTEM:DECW$MAIL.EXE
$!
$!	    = To execute a single DCL command on the remote node...
$!		$ @SYS$LOGIN:RDECW    <node>	<dcl-command>
$!		$ @SYS$LOGIN:RDECW    XDELTA	NOTES/DECWINDOWS
$!
$!	DCL commands and utilities (such as NOTES) that support and/or accept
$!	a /DECWINDOWS or /FORMAT=DECWINDOWS display qualifier should always
$!	be specified with the DECwindows display qualifier enabled.
$!
$!	CONFIGURATION and SET-UP: A copy of this procedure must reside in the
$!	local login directory *and* the login directory of any node it is to
$!	be used remotely on.  (The remote directory might be a default network
$!	username/account, or it might be the default directory for a proxy
$!	login, or it could be the directory associated with an explicitly
$!	specified access control string.)
$!
$!	If you choose to modify this command procedure, *please* rename the
$!	result -- to avoid potential protocol collisions with this procedure.
$!	Do not (re)use the name RDECW.COM!  Thanks!

$!	V0.0-000|0|	prehistory	Steve Hoffman (XDELTA::HOFFMAN)
$!	RDECW.COM procedure written.
$!
$!	V1.2-000|2|	28-Feb-1990	Steve Hoffman (XDELTA::HOFFMAN)
$!	added protocol checks, added support for DCL commands.  This
$!	procedure assumes CREATE/TERM is present -- which means it
$!	will work on DECwindows V2 or better (VMS V5.3 and up) only.
$!
$!	V1.2-000|3|	06-Jan-1992	Steve Hoffman (XDELTA::HOFFMAN)
$!	(Hopefully) improved the set-up and configuration requirement
$!	comments.
