Starting a FUP Process
Access to FUP is available through the HP Tandem Advanced Command Language
(TACL), the standard command interface in the Guardian environment. To start a FUP
process, use any of these methods:
Enter FUP, followed by a FUP command, at the TACL prompt.
Enter FUP and then use the FUP commands interactively.
Enter FUP, followed by a command file (followed by a TACL IN run option).
At the TACL Prompt
To enter FUP commands at the TACL prompt, type the term
FUP
, followed by the
command you want, and press the RETURN key:
The FUP command (INFO *) in this example instructs FUP to list the file information of
each file in your current subvolume. After FUP executes the command, control of the
terminal returns to TACL. A separate FUP process starts and completes for each
command you enter.
