|
LINK-LINE line-process [(U)] |
Parameter(s)
|
line |
Number of the line you want to link. |
|
process |
Number of the process to which you want to link the line. |
|
U |

Description

|

Linking a Line to a Process
This example links line 2 to process 4:
|
>LINK-LINE 2-4 [8010] LINE 2 LINKED TO PROCESS 4. |
The next example breaks any existing links or attachments to line 3 and process 5, then links line 3 to process 5:
|
>LINK-LINE 3-5 (U) [8010] LINE 3 LINKED TO PROCESS 5. |
The UNLINK-LINE command breaks the link between a specified communications line and the process to which it is linked.
Format
|
UNLINK-LINE line |
Parameter(s)
|
line |
Number of the line you want to unlink. |
Description
UNLINK-LINE breaks any attachment between the line and the process. Unlinked and unattached lines are made available with this command—that is, they are free to be linked and attached to any process.
When the line is successfully unlinked, this message displays:
|
[8012] LINE n UNLINKED. |
where n is the line you specified. If the line is already unlinked or detached, no message displays when you enter the UNLINK-LINE statement.
To link a line to a process, use the LINK-LINE command.
Unlinking and Detaching a Line from a Process
This example unlinks line 5 from whatever process it was linked to (usually 5) and makes it available:
|
>UNLINK-LINE 5 [8012] LINE 5 UNLINKED. |
