Register Manually to UVMS

The command unims interacts with the Univiewer Management Server.

Dollar Universe registration to UVMS is necessary for:

• Receiving centralized information (alert rules, security, Company nodes)
• Authenticating Univiewer console connections. When UVC is connected to a DUAS node, it checks the identity of the client (UVC) with UVMS.

The Dollar Universe Application Server logical environment (unienv) must be loaded.
On OS/400, programs and commands are located in the <COMPANY> and <COMPANY>SYS libraries.

On Windows / UNIX / OpenVMS, enter unims without arguments to display the usage text.

The command offers the following major options:

• -help: Display the command's online help.
• -genpwd: Encode a Password in a file that is usable by the other commands.
• -register: Register the Dollar Universe node on the UVMS.
• -unregister: Unregister the Dollar Universe node from the UVMS node list.
• -update: Upgrade node information and synchronizes with UVMS.
• -remove: Deactivate a Manager or an Area.
• -checkms: Verify the connection with the UVMS.

On OS/400, the following commands are available:

• UNIMSREGIS: equivalent to unims -register
• UNIMSUNREG: equivalent to unims -unregister
• UNIMSUPDAT: equivalent to unims -update
