1  CONFIGURE
   Valid for Alpha and Integrity server systems only.

   Displays information about the system configuration and in some
   cases allows setting of configuration parameters.

   Format

     CONFIGURE  GALAXY [model.gcm]
 

2  Parameters
 

GALAXY [model.gcm]

   Specifies the location and name of a Galaxy Configuration Model
   to load and display.

   If no model is provided and the system is running as an OpenVMS
   Galaxy, the current active configuration is displayed.
 

2  Description
   Invokes the Galaxy Configuration Utility (GCU) to monitor,
   display, and interact with an OpenVMS Galaxy system. The GCU
   requires DECwindows Motif V1.2-4 or greater and ALPHA OpenVMS
   V7.2 or greater.

   The optional model parameter specifies the location and name of
   a Galaxy Configuration Model to load and display. If no model
   is provided and the system is running as an OpenVMS Galaxy, the
   current active configuration is displayed.

   If the system is not running as an OpenVMS Galaxy, the GCU will
   assist the user in creating a single-instance OpenVMS Galaxy
   system.

   OpenVMS Galaxy Configuration Models are created with the Galaxy
   Configuration Utility. See the HP OpenVMS Alpha Partitioning and
   Galaxy Guide and GCU online help for more information.
 

2  Qualifiers
 

/ENGAGE

   Causes the GCU to engage (load, validate, and activate) the
   specified OpenVMS Galaxy Configuration Model without displaying
   the graphical user interface. After validation, the specified
   model becomes the active system configuration.

   This qualifier allows system managers to restore the OpenVMS
   Galaxy system to a known configuration, regardless of what
   dynamic resource reassignments may have occurred since the
   system was booted. This command can be embedded in DCL command
   procedures to automate configuration operations.
 

/VIEW

   When used in conjunction with /ENGAGE and a model parameter,
   causes the GCU to load, validate, activate, and display the
   specified configuration model.
 

2  Examples

   1.$ CONFIGURE GALAXY

     Displays the GCU's graphical user interface. If the system is
     currently configured as an OpenVMS Galaxy, the active system
     configuration is displayed.

   2.$ CONFIGURE GALAXY model.GCM

     Displays the GCU's graphical user interface. The specified
     OpenVMS Galaxy Configuration Model is loaded and displayed, but
     does not become the active configuration until the user chooses
     to engage it.

   3.$ CONFIGURE GALAXY/ENGAGE model.GCM

     Invokes the GCU command line interface to engage the specified
     OpenVMS Galaxy Configuration Model without displaying the GCU's
     graphical user interface.

   4.$ CONFIGURE GALAXY/ENGAGE/VIEW model.GCM

     Invokes the GCU command line interface to engage the specified
     OpenVMS Galaxy Configuration Model and display the GCU's
     graphical user interface.
