This example shows output from a command issued on a local node on which there are three nodes defined (GALAXY, ZAPNOT, and CALPAL). CALPAL has issued two load requests:
- The first request is the multicast request from CALPAL that the local node volunteered to accept.
- The second request is the load request sent directly to the local node by CALPAL for the actual load data. The elapsed time from the second load request to completion of the load was 6.65 seconds.

LANCP> SHOW NODE/ALL/OUTPUT=TMP.INI |
Writes a list of all nodes to the file TMP.INI.
Creates a subprocess of the current process. The SPAWN command copies the context of the subprocess from the current process.
SPAWN [command-string]
command-string
A string of commands to be executed in the context of the created subprocess. After the command string is executed, control returns to LANCP.
None.

In this example, you enter the node information for a node, but are unsure of the root, so you spawn to search MODPARAMS.DAT for the node name and then correct the root.
Issues a request to reboot to a remote node.Rather than specify the format to send MOP Version 3 or 4, the LANCP utility sends one message in each format to the target node.
TRIGGER NODE node-specification
node-specification
Supplies either the node name or the node address of the target node. If you supply the node name, the node address is obtained by looking up the node name in the LAN volatile node database. If you supply the node address, the corresponding node need not be defined in the LAN volatile node database. The canonical form of the address consists of 6 hexadecimal byte characters separated by hyphens. Use a colon as the separator character to indicate the bit-reversed form of the address.
/DEVICE=device-name
Specifies the LAN controller device name to be used for sending the trigger boot messages. For example, you can specify a DEMNA controller as EXA, EXA0 or EXA0:./PASSWORD=16hexdigits
Supplies the password to be used when the connection is initiated, in hexadecimal (for example, /PASSWORD=0123456789ABCDEF). The default password is zero. You can omit leading zeros.

LANCP> TRIGGER NODE GALAXY/DEVICE=EWA0 |
This command sends MOP trigger boot messages to node GALAXY using Ethernet device EWA0.
#2 |

LANCP> TRIGGER NODE 08-00-2B-11-22-33/DEVICE=EWA0/PASSWORD=0123456789AB |
This command sends MOP trigger boot messages to the given node address using the Ethernet device EWA0, with indicated password.
Resets a LAN device. Requires SYSPRV privilege.
UPDATE DEVICE device-name
device-name
Specifies a device to be reset. The device name has the form ddcu where dd is the device code, c is the controller designation, and u is the unit number. LAN devices are specified as the name of the template device which is unit 0. For example, the first DE435 Ethernet device is specified as EWA0, the second as EWB0.
/RESET
Specifies that the device is to be reset.
LANCP> UPDATE DEVICE EWA0/RESET |
Resets Ethernet device EWA0.
13.1 LATCP Description
The LAT Control Program (LATCP) utility is used to configure and
control the LAT software on OpenVMS systems. You can use LATCP to:
LATCP allows you to control the LAT software on a node and to obtain information from it. For example, you can use LATCP to create services on the local node, to associate a port on the local node with a service or device on a remote terminal server, and to display information about services offered on the local node or on other nodes in the network.
When you use LATCP commands to change LAT characteristics (such as creating a service and associating a port with a service), the changes take effect immediately. However, when the LAT port driver stops, these characteristics are lost. If you want these characteristics to be present the next time you start the LAT port driver, edit LAT$SYSTARTUP.COM by modifying or adding commands to set these characteristics. Then, invoke LAT$STARTUP.COM to start the LAT port driver. (Refer to the HP OpenVMS System Manager's Manual for more information.)
RUN SYS$SYSTEM:LATCP
To invoke LATCP, enter RUN SYS$SYSTEM:LATCP at the DCL command prompt. At the LATCP> prompt, you can enter the LATCP commands described in the following section.To exit from LATCP, enter the EXIT command at the LATCP> prompt or press Ctrl/Z.
You can also execute a single LATCP command by using a DCL string assignment statement, as shown in the following example:
$ LCP :== $LATCP $ LCP SET NODE/STATE=ONLATCP executes the SET NODE command and returns control to DCL.
The following table summarizes the LATCP commands:
Command | Function |
---|---|
ATTACH | Transfers control from your current process to the specified process. |
CREATE LINK | Creates LAT data links. |
CREATE PORT | Creates a logical port on the local node. |
CREATE SERVICE | Creates a service on a service node. |
DEFINE/KEY | Assigns a command string to a function key on your keypad. |
DELETE LINK | Deletes a LAT data link from a node. |
DELETE PORT | Deletes an application port or dedicated port. |
DELETE QUEUE_ENTRY | Deletes an incoming queued request from the local node. |
DELETE SERVICE | Deletes a service on a service node. |
EXIT | Returns the user to DCL command level. |
HELP | Displays help text for LATCP commands. |
RECALL | Recalls LATCP commands that you entered previously so that you can execute them again. |
REFRESH | Refreshes your display screen, for example, after your display has been overwritten by output from some other source. |
SCROLL | Allows you to retrieve information that has scrolled off the screen. |
SET LINK | Modifies characteristics of LAT data links. |
SET NODE | Specifies LAT characteristics for a node. |
SET PORT | Maps a logical port on a node to either a remote device on a terminal server or a special application service on a remote LAT service node. |
SET SERVICE | Changes service characteristics. |
SHOW LINK | Displays the characteristics of links on your node. |
SHOW NODE | Displays the characteristics of nodes. |
SHOW PORT | Displays port characteristics. |
SHOW QUEUE_ENTRY | Displays information about requests, or entries, queued on the local node. |
SHOW SERVICE | Displays characteristics of LAT services known to your node. |
SPAWN | Creates a subprocess. |
ZERO COUNTERS | Resets the node counters, service counters, and link counters maintained by your node. |
Transfers control from your current process to the specified process. The LATCP command ATTACH is similar to the DCL command ATTACH. For example, from the DCL command level you can enter the DCL command SPAWN to create a LATCP subprocess without ending your DCL session, execute several LATCP commands at the LATCP prompt, then use the ATTACH command to return to DCL.
ATTACH [process-name]
process-name
Specifies the name of a parent process or spawned subprocess to which control passes. The process must already exist, be part of your current job, and share the same input stream as your current process.Process names can contain from 1 to 15 alphanumeric characters. If a connection to the specified process cannot be made, LATCP displays an error message.
If you specify the /PID qualifier, do not use the process name parameter. If you omit the /PID qualifier, you must use the process name parameter.
To display processes, use the DCL command SHOW SYSTEM.
/PID=pid
Specifies the process identifier (PID) of the process that will have terminal control. When you specify a PID, you can omit the leading zeros. If you specify a PID, do not use the process name parameter. If you omit the /PID qualifier, you must use the process-name parameter.
The ATTACH command allows you to connect your input stream to another process. You can use ATTACH to change control from one process to another. For example, you can use ATTACH to change control from LATCP to the DCL command level (see the following example). While you are at the DCL command level, LATCP remains in a hibernation state until you use ATTACH to return to it.You cannot use this command if you are logged in to a captive account. (A captive account is an account set up to restrict user access to the system. You cannot access the DCL command level from a captive account.) You cannot specify both a process name and the /PID qualifier.
$ SET PROCESS/NAME="TOP_LEVEL" $ SPAWN RUN SYS$SYSTEM:LATCP LATCP> SHOW NODE/ALL . . . LATCP> ATTACH "TOP_LEVEL" $ |
In this example, the user enters the DCL command SPAWN to create a LATCP subprocess and uses LATCP to display the status of all nodes known to the local node. After using LATCP, the user enters the ATTACH command to return to the DCL command level.
