3 RE-INSTALL AFTER COLD START:¶
The installation program makes a :MODE file on user SYSTEM. This file should later be used to re-install ND-PILOT after a COLD START. Remember to update the DUMP-REENTRANT (or HENT-MODE) file with the following command:
@MODE DUMP-PILOT-A<rev>:MODE,,,
4 HOW TO USE THE TUTORIALS:¶
The tutorial is split into two sections. The first section, called "SIB", provides an introduction to DIALOGUE and SIBAS/R in general. The second section, called "DRL", provides a more specific introduction to defining SIBAS databases using the DRL tool.
The tutorial may be accessed from any user in your system. After logging in, use this command to start the first section:
@PDS,,(PILOT-A`)SIB-PROG-A<rev> ↵
If UE MENUS are used, make the command into a menu selection. We recommend the selection be called ´SIBAS/R Introduction´.
Give this command to start the second section:
@PDS,,(PILOT-A`)DRL-PROG-A<rev> ↵
If UE MENUS are used, make the command into a menu selection. We recommend the selection be called ´SIBR-DRL Introduction´.
Type this command to restart the last executed section: (Within the same terminal session.)
@PDS ↵
The restart facility will not work if you have logged out and in since you started the tutorial with its given name.
*) The user name may be different. See section 2.3.
