Batch Engines

This section describes the commands on engines. These commands are presented for compatibility purposes only. Their output may differ in V5 and V6: some items may be displayed or not. They should not be used in V6. The ux* fnc commands, described in the Dollar Universe Installation Guide, should be used instead in V6.

The default Environment (area _ node) can be changed.

The command uxend ATM stops the engines. Its syntax is as follows:

uxend ATM [CAL|LAN|ECH|SURV|ALL]

The command uxstr ATM starts the engines and defines the exchanger cycle. Its syntax is as follows:

uxstr ATM [CAL|LAN|ECH|SURV|ALL] [CYCLE=nnnnnn]

The command uxwak ATM wakes up the engines. This command may be used to wake up an engine on a remote machine. Its syntax is as follows:

uxwak ATM [CAL|LAN|ECH|SURV|ALL]

The command uxlst ATM displays the status of the selected engines along with information about the last stop, start and programmed wakeup. Its syntax is as follows:

uxlst ATM [CAL|LAN|ECH|SURV|ALL] [OUTPUT=filename]

Note: The command uxlst fnc, which lists the status of all services of Dollar Universe (schedulers and technical processes), is described in the Dollar Universe Installation Guide in the paragraph "List the Services".
