Preparing a Shared Environment<br />

5.6 Coordinating Startup Command Procedures<br />

5.6.1 <strong>OpenVMS</strong> Startup Procedures<br />

Several startup command procedures are distributed as part of the <strong>OpenVMS</strong><br />

operating system. The SYS$SYSTEM:STARTUP.COM command procedure<br />

executes immediately after <strong>OpenVMS</strong> is booted and invokes the site-specific<br />

startup command procedures described in the following table.<br />

Procedure Name Invoked by Function<br />

SYS$MANAGER:<br />

SYPAGSWPFILES.COM<br />

SYS$MANAGER:<br />

SYCONFIG.COM<br />

SYS$MANAGER:<br />

SYSECURITY.COM<br />

SYS$MANAGER:<br />

SYLOGICALS.COM<br />

SYS$MANAGER:<br />

SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM<br />

SYS$SYSTEM:<br />

STARTUP.COM<br />

A file to which you add commands to install page and swap files<br />

(other than the primary page and swap files that are installed<br />

automatically).<br />

Connects special devices and loads device I/O drivers.<br />

Defines the location of the security audit and archive files before<br />

it starts the security audit server.<br />

Creates systemwide logical names, and defines system<br />

components as executive-mode logical names. (<strong>Cluster</strong>wide<br />

logical names should be defined in SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM.)<br />

<strong>Cluster</strong> common disks can be mounted at the end of this<br />

procedure.<br />

Performs many of the following startup and login functions:<br />

• Mounts all volumes except the system disk.<br />

• Sets device characteristics.<br />

• Defines clusterwide logical names<br />

• Initializes and starts batch and print queues.<br />

• Installs known images.<br />

• Starts layered products.<br />

• Starts the DECnet software.<br />

• Analyzes most recent system failure.<br />

• Purges old operator log files.<br />

• Starts the LAT network (if used).<br />

• Defines the maximum number of interactive users.<br />

• Announces that the system is up and running.<br />

• Allows users to log in.<br />

The directory SYS$COMMON:[SYSMGR] contains a template file for each<br />

command procedure that you can edit. Use the command procedure templates (in<br />

SYS$COMMON:[SYSMGR]*.TEMPLATE) as examples for customization of your<br />

system’s startup and login characteristics.<br />

5.6.2 Building Startup Procedures<br />

The first step in preparing an <strong>OpenVMS</strong> <strong>Cluster</strong> shared environment is to build a<br />

SYSTARTUP_VMS command procedure. Each computer executes the procedure<br />

at startup time to define the operating environment.<br />
