TOOLSRUN runs on Greenwich Mean Time which is 7 or 8 hours ahead of us.
So when looking at FORUMS, NAMES, or HISTORY files, subtract 7 or 8
hours depending on Daylight Savings Time.
     Subtract 7 hours April - October.
     Subtract 8 hours November - March.

The name of John's EXEC to build the NAMES file is TOOLNAME.
Why is it, Rick, that you can never remember that?

A neat way of doing something to a master and all shadows is
      TOOLS TO CPCOR0 PROPAGATE QUERY DISK
   or TOOLS TO CPCOR0 PROPAGATE LIST * *
   or TOOLS TO CPCOR0 PROPAGATE CLEAN ALL
The master will do the command and propagate the command to all the
shadows.  The shadows will do the command and send the response back
to you.  Slick.
=======================================================================
When TOOLSRUN gets an error, it changes its reader files to class C.
When TOOLSRUN defers work,   it changes its reader files to class D.
To get it to process reader files, they must be class M, so do a
 
                  CHANGE TOOLS READER ALL CLASS M

To tell a remote TOOLS machine to do something, type in
      TOOLS SENDTO SJEVMF SYSNTOOLS EELOCAL SHUTDOWN
      TOOLS SENDTO SJEVMF SYSNTOOLS EELOCAL SHUTDOWN PERMANENT
   or TOOLS SENDTO SJEVMF SYSNTOOLS EELOCAL START
 
=======================================================================
To shutdown and start a single disk,
      SMSG tools_uid : DISK disk_name SHUTDOWN
      SMSG tools_uid : DISK disk_name START
=======================================================================
To initialize a shadow disk, send TOOLS at the master this command
 
      SMSG TOOLS :diskname COPY * * shadow_nodeid TOOLS diskname
 
For example, the command we typed in at SJEVM5 to initialize our copy of
Gordon's VMTOOLS 199 disk at SJEVM1 was
 
      SMSG TOOLS :VMT199   COPY * * SJEVM1        TOOLS VMT199
=======================================================================
To replace a file on a TOOLS-controlled disk, enter this command
 
      TOOLS TO diskname REPLACE filename filetype (comment why
 
For example, the command we typed in at SJEVM5 to replace $$DISK$$ NAMES
on Gordon's VMTOOLS 199 disk was
 
   TOOLS TO VMT199 REPLACE $$DISK$$ NAMES (Point to correct QPRINT disk.
=======================================================================
To append to a forum, type in
 
   TOOLS TO IBMVM APPEND TOOLS FORUM
=======================================================================
To replace a file (say the CONTROL file) on TOOLS 191 disk,
 
   TOOLS TO SP4190 AGET fn ft       or SMSG K83TOOLS : AGET fn ft
   TOOLS TO SP4190 AREPLACE fn ft
or TOOLS SENDTO ALMVMC K83TOOLS X AREPLACE fn ft
   TOOLS TO SP4190 SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE  SMSG K83TOOLS : SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
=======================================================================
To make a blanket change of all files owned by one person to another
(or to change node names and/or userids),
 
   TOOLS TO SP4190 FOR ALMVMA THARENOS SET ADDR ALMVMA RCHING
=======================================================================
To get TOOLCARE to synch a disk,
- From your id, get a list from the master TOOLS SENDTO ... LIST * *
- When that gets here, put it on your a-disk.  fid = diskname LIST
- Put it on the TOOLS server's a-disk with TOOLS ... AREP diskname LIST
- Then TOOLS ... CMS TOOLCARE diskname CHECK LIST
- And  TOOLS ... CMS TOOLCARE diskname REFRESH
  We didn't need it, but if TOOLCARE is set up to only run at certain
  times of the day and you want it to run now, you can add * RT 0-24
