BRUIN - Author: Dennis Costello
A corrected version of the command files which appeared on the Fall 85
(Anaheim) tape. This submissions will also appear on the Spring 86 VMS SIG
tape.
These command files copy a BRU backup set onto an ODS-2 rooted
directory. Specify the backup set name and the device name on which the rooted
directory should be created, eg:
$ @BRUIN RSX85B DU1
VAXBRURDR.EXE, as provided here, is required. (This is a copy of the one on
the RSX85A tape). Before running BRUIN, change the line in BRUIN.COM which
reads:
$ vmsbru :== $[manager.bru]vaxbrurdr
to point to the correct location of VAXBRURDR.EXE on your system.
To read in multiple backup sets from one tape, use the command file
BRUALL.COM:
$ @BRUALL DU1
This will make a list of all backup sets on the tape, and read each into its
own subdirectory. All files on the tape must be BRU backup sets, or the command
file will probably die horribly. As in BRUIN.COM above, you should change the
following 2 lines to point to appropriate directories:
This command is quite appropriate to run as a batch job.
TABBUILD - Author: Dennis Costello
This is a command file which produces a loadable device database for
use in a loadable device driver. In particular, the driver source, normally
found in [11,10]xxDRV.MAC, can be used to produce a loadable/loadable driver,
and that driver can then be LOAded into the RSX system, even though the device
was not defined during Sysgen. Tabbuild does not actually produce the database
code directly; it merely provides an environment in which the Sysgen command
file SGNPER.CMD is called. SGNPER then does the real work. The instructions
for using this command file are in the paper "Adding Device to RSX Without a
Sysgen", which will be in the Spring 86 Proceedings and the Multi-tasker. A
preliminary copy of the paper is included here for your benifit, as PAPER.RNO.
The slides from the talk, some of which will be figures in the final version
of the paper, are included as *.sls. These are sixel files, and can be printed
on any printer which supports that format, such as the LA50, LA100, and LN03.
