Use the TELL prefix to identify the executor node for a particular NCP
command. TELL sets the executor for only one command and must prefix
the command for which it is intended. This command allows you
optionally to specify access control information in one of two ways:
as part of the node-spec or as distinct parameters.
TELL node-spec ACCOUNT account
PASSWORD password
USER user-id
All underscores found in parameters must be replaced with spaces
when parameters are used in NCP commands.
1 – node-spec
Specifies a node name or address optionally followed by
access control information as specified for VMS. Use one
of the following formats:
node-id
node-id"user password account"
2 – ACCOUNT account
Identifies the user's account for access control verification at the designated executor node.
3 – PASSWORD password
Identifies the user's password for access control verification at the designated executor node.
4 – USER user-id
Identifies the user's ID for access control verification at the designated executor node.
5 – Examples
NCP>TELL 3.5 SET KNOWN LINES ALL
This command sets the executor to node 3.5 where the SET KNOWN
LINES ALL command executes.
NCP>TELL TRNTO"LOW JBL" SHOW KNOWN LINES
This command uses access control information to set the
executor to node TRNTO where the SHOW KNOWN LINES command
executes.
NCP>TELL TRNTO USER SYSTEM PASSWORD MANAGER ZERO EXECUTOR
This command uses an alternate access control format to set
the executor to node TRNTO where the ZERO EXECUTOR command
executes.
