Use the CVTOVRID sample utility program to convert a CMS class override file
(one that is processed by the CP OVERRIDE utility) into a series of MODIFY
statements to imbed into a system configuration file.
Note: CVTOVRID is an XEDIT MACRO, so you must be editing (XEDITing) the file
that you want to convert when you invoke this utility.
fn is the file name of the output file that will contain the MODIFY configuration file
statements. If omitted, the default file name is OVERRIDE.
ft is the file type of the output file that will contain the MODIFY configuration file
statements. If omitted, the default file type is CONFIG.
fm is the file mode of the output file that will contain the MODIFY configuration file
statements. You must have a link that allows you to write to the disk (or SFS
directory) accessed at the specified file mode. If omitted, the default file mode is
A1.
1. After creating the file of MODIFY statements, you must:
a. Add an IMBED statement to your system configuration file to pull in the new
file (or move the MODIFY statements from the new file to your system
configuration file)
b. Make sure that the new file (or your system configuration file) is on the parm
disk.
2. CP maintains some of the QUERY subcommand control blocks off of a virtual
subcommand chain. These blocks are for QUERY VIRTUAL subcommands and
generic subcommands for which there is no specific operand that identifies
them. For example, QUERY 0003 for a class B user is identified by the generic
QUERY subcommand block because the second operand, which would be used
to identify it, is a device address of which there is no single keyword that
indicates that a real device is being queried. If no keyword is found, then the
entry point for the generic QUERY subcommand is used, provided that the user
has the correct privilege class.
