When you run the nco_elct command to start the transient event list on UNIX, you must specify a number of command-line options to customize the event list. You can run this command from the $NCHOME/omnibus/bin directory.
The following table describes the command-line options for starting the transient event list on UNIX.
| Command-line option | Description |
|---|---|
| -cmap | Specifies a private color map. You cannot abbreviate this command-line option. |
| -diagnostic | Displays extended diagnostic messages. |
| -dualwrite 1 | 0 | Indicates whether to enable or disable dual-write mode when
operating in a desktop ObjectServer architecture. Valid options are
as follows:
The -dualwrite command-line option overrides the DualWrite field entry in the master.national table of the desktop ObjectServer. |
| -ffile string | URL | Specifies the filter file to use for the transient
event list. Event list filters have a .elf extension. Note: You can also retrieve remote .elf files
by using HTTP and FTP. You do this by specifying the -config command-line
option when running the nco_event command to start
a UNIX event list.
|
| -fmetric string | Specifies a filter metric for the transient event list. This setting is ignored if you have specified an existing event list filter file by using the -ffile command-line option. |
| -fname string | Specifies a name for the filter. This setting is ignored if you have specified an existing event list filter file by using the -ffile command-line option. |
| -ftext string | Specifies the SQL statement to use for filtering events. This setting is ignored if you have specified an existing event list filter file by using the -ffile command-line option. |
| -help | Displays help for this command and exits. |
| -masterserver string | Indicates the master ObjectServer to use in a desktop ObjectServer
architecture. The -masterserver command-line option overrides the MasterServer field entry in the master.national table of the desktop ObjectServer. |
| -networktimeout integer | Specifies a time in seconds after which a login attempt or connection to the ObjectServer will time out, if a network failure occurs. After the specified timeout period, the event list attempts to reconnect to the ObjectServer. If the connection is unsuccessful after a second timeout period, the event list will attempt to connect to a backup ObjectServer, where available. The default is 20 seconds. |
| -password string | Specifies the password for the selected user name. The nco_elct utility only accepts alphanumeric characters in the password. Special characters such as #, /, >, @, and ! are not permitted in the password. |
| -server string | Specifies the name of the ObjectServer to which you are connecting. |
| -username string | Specifies the user name to use to log in to the event list. |
| -version | Displays version information and exits. |
| -vfile string | URL | Opens a transient event list by using a specified
event list view. Event list views have a .elv file
extension. Note: You can also retrieve remote .elv files
by using HTTP and FTP. You do this by specifying the -config command-line
option when running the nco_event command to start
a UNIX event list.
