postConnect and IDTPostConnect commands

When processing UOWs and connecting users to devices via IDT, Netcool Configuration Manager uses the applicable connect section of the Device Script.

  • In all cases, the connect.* commands will be used.
  • postConnect commands are not passed to IDT and used only when executing UOWs.
  • IDTPostConnect commands are only processed by IDT.
For example, to make IDT ignore the term length and term width commands, change "connect.xx.send=" entries into "postConnect.xx.send="
Original connect section
connect.81.wait=#
connect.82.send=term len 0\r
connect.85.wait=#
connect.90.send=term width 100\r
connect.95.wait=#
New Connect section
connect.81.wait=#
postConnect.82.send=term len 0\r
postConnect.85.wait=#
postConnect.90.send=term width 100\r
postConnect.95.wait=#
Furthermore, to make IDT set user-orientated term length and width, add "IDTPostConnect.xx.send=" entries to the connect section.
connect.81.wait=#

postConnect.82.send=term len 0\r
postConnect.85.wait=#
postConnect.90.send=term width 100\r
postConnect.95.wait=#

IDTPostConnect.96.send=term len 24\r
IDTPostConnect.97.wait=#
IDTPostConnect.98.send=term width 80\r
IDTPostConnect.99.wait=#
