Refer to Application Programmer’s Reference Manual, section ‘‘Defining a
Message Format Description’’ for information on constructing a

fmt-string

parameter.

/LENGTH_OF_FIELD=field-length

Enter the size of the message field that you want to define. The default for string
types is the length of the message entered, plus one (for the zero termination
byte). The default for signed and unsigned types is four. This is a positional
qualifier; it must immediately follow the message field that it refers to.

/NODE[=node-list]
/NODE=default-node-list (D)

Specifies that the command is executed on all nodes specified in

node-list

. If

node-list

is omitted then the command is executed only on the node where the

command was issued.

/OUTPUT[=file-spec]
/OUTPUT=stdout (D)

Specifies that the resulting information is written to the file

file-spec

. If

/OUTPUT

or

file-spec

is omitted then the standard or default output is used.

/RECIPIENT_SPEC=rcpspc

Enter a string specifying the recipient name. The wild-card characters ‘‘*’’ and ‘‘?’’
are permitted.

RECIPIENT_SPEC is case sensitive

/TYPE_OF_DATA=STRING | SIGNED | UNSIGNED
/TYPE_OF_DATA=STRING (D)

Enter the data type of the message field that you want to define. The default
is the string type. This is a positional qualifier; it must immediately follow the
message field that it refers to.

Examples

This command broadcasts user event number 23 to all channels having a null
string rcpnam (the default). A message is sent with the broadcast.
