Is there any HP provided utility similar to one EMSPERUS (this is by ACI) ? I know Viewpoint but that is kind of just for GUI but I wanted to use in TACL macro to extract ems messages.
I know we can develop utility simlar to Emsperus using SPI programming but that will take time. Please let me know if anyone of you is aware about such existing utility.
I don't know very much about it, but you may be able to use "esmdist" for this. You'll have to find the syntax yourself as I don't have that info here.
You don't say exactly what you want the TACL macro to do. Here's the one I used to display EMS events.
== @Display EMS events@
?TACL MACRO
#FRAME
#PUSH error endtime outfile
#SETMANY error, [#DEFINEINFO =_ems_templates]
[#IF [error] |THEN|
Add define =_ems_templates,class map,file $wrkm01.richx.newnres
]
[#IF [#EMPTY %2%] |THEN|
#SET endtime eof
|ELSE|
#SET endtime %2%
]
[#IF [#EMPTY %3%] |THEN|
#SET outfile [#MYTERM]
|ELSE|
#SET outfile %3%
]
emsdist type p, collector $MALG, textout [outfile], &
filter \mboxdev.$work.richems.mailfilt,time %1%,stop [endtime]
#UNFRAME
I was first thinking of using the Tandem FUP utility, but then I found this TACL document which also discusses EMS in detail. Also, FYI TACL is Tandem's interpretative language. We used that to run our Tandem processes. via Batchcom.
