Managing SNAplus2 from NetView
Using UCF
• The UCF cannot be used with a command that requires further input
from the user before it completes (for example, a command such as vi
filename that starts an interactive process, or a command such as
tail -f filename that does not complete until it is stopped by the
user).
Because all HP-UX commands run with the login ID and permissions of
the configured UCF user, the valid commands are limited by the access
rights of the UCF user's login. In particular, root or superuser commands
are not permitted. For more information, see “UCF Security”.
Example of a UCF Command
The following is an example of a UCF command as you would enter it
from NetView:
runcmd sp=myspname, appl=unix, grep \temp \(ab\)*.c >\t\e\m\p.out
The command that would run on the HP-UX computer is:
grep Temp [ab]*.c >TEMP.out
Output from HP-UX System Commands
When a command is issued successfully, the following messages are
displayed on the NetView screen:
= = = EXECUTING UNIX COMMAND = = =
(any output from the command, including error messages)
= = = UNIX COMMAND COMPLETED = = =
These messages may not appear on the NetView screen at the same time.
The EXECUTING UNIX COMMAND message appears as soon as the UCF
daemon program receives the command and returns control to the
NetView operator. Any output from the command is sent to NetView as it
is produced, and may appear as a series of separate messages; the UNIX
COMMAND COMPLETED message appears when the HP-UX command has
finished and its shell has ended.
If the output from the HP-UX command contains tab characters,
SNAplus2 converts each tab to a space character before sending the
output to NetView. Otherwise the output is sent unchanged.
