NAME

sys - start edrc with a special WA2L/edrc maintenance configuration

 

SYNOPSIS

edrc/bin/sys [ -h | -V ]

sys [ -s ] [ -t ]

 

AVAILABILITY

WA2L/edrc

 

DESCRIPTION

Short start of edrc with an other configuration which points to an own script tree. Internally sys calls edrc -c edrc.sys.cfg -n sys_@ID@ .

This configuration is part of the WA2L/edrc package and the menu should not be modified, due to the fact that updates are provided thru patches and all changes would be lost or the changes made would question the correct operation of the script tree.

The menu points provide an user interface to some installation, patching and package distribution tasks.

The session name (as shown in the menu) is automatically set to sys_<id> . Where <id> is the process id of the started edrc instance if not already a session with the same name exists, if so the <id> is set to a random number.

If additional short starts are needed, create a symlink from the new short start command to sat ( see section EXAMPLES ).

 

OPTIONS

-h
usage message.

-V
print version and patch level of edrc. For an explanation of the release numbering system see edrcrevision(1).

-s
silent startup. Startup without showing the EDRC banner.

-t
no terminal initialization. Sometimes the terminal initialization causes unwanted behavior. To skip terminal initialization, invoke edrc with this option.

 

ENVIRONMENT

EXIT STATUS

FILES

etc/edrc.sys.cfg
configuration file of sys, see edrc.cfg(4) for more information.

EXAMPLES

1) create a new short start

This creates a new short start command new_shortstart that will load the configuration file edrc.new_shortstart.cfg. The session name will automatically be set to NEW_SHORTSTART_<id> .

        [ /root ]
        [ root@rh7mzv7t001 ][bash]: cd ~edrc/bin 

        [ /opt/edrc/bin ]
        [ root@rh7mzv7t001 ][bash]: ln -s sat new_shortstart
