VMS Help LANCP, LANACP  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

    The LANACP Server process provides the following services:

    o  Maintenance of the LAN volatile node database

    o  Maintenance of the LAN volatile device database

    o  MOP downline load

    To start the LANACP LAN Server process, type
    @SYS$STARTUP:LAN$STARTUP at the DCL prompt, or include this line
    in the SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM command file to start LANACP
    automatically at system startup.

    The following example shows the command line as it appears in
    SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM:

    $!
    $! To start the LANACP LAN server application, remove the comment delimiter
    $! from the command line below.
    $!
    $! @SYS$STARTUP:LAN$STARTUP
    $!

    To stop the LANACP LAN Server process, enter the SET ACP/STOP
    command at the LANCP utility prompt.

1 - Logical names

    LANACP uses the following system logical names:

    Component                Description

    LAN$DLL system logical   Defines the location of downline load
    name                     files, where the location of the file
                             is not provided in the load request or
                             explicitly defined in the LAN volatile
                             node database. By default, this will be
                             defined as SYS$SYSROOT:[MOM$SYSTEM].
    LAN$NODE_DATABASE        Defines the name of the LAN permanent
    system logical name      node database. By default, this is
                             defined as SYS$COMMON:[SYSEXE]LAN$NODE_
                             DATABASE.DAT.
    LAN$DEVICE_DATABASE      Defines the name of the LAN
    system logical name      permanent device database. By
                             default, this is defined as
                             SYS$SPECIFIC:[SYSEXE]LAN$DEVICE_
                             DATABASE.DAT.
    LAN$ACP system logical   Defines the name of the LANACP LAN
    name                     Server process log file, containing
                             entries describing changes to the LAN
                             permanent device and node databases,
                             and load request and load status
                             information. By default, this is defined
                             as SYS$SPECIFIC:[SYSMGR]LAN$ACP.LOG.
