This release includes the automated tape loader and new disk support. The automated tape loader, with support of other front-end software, can identify, mount, and unload 3480-style tapes without operator intervention. Initially, two loaders are supported: Storage Technology 4400 Nearline and IBM Scratch Loader. This feature requires supporting changes to the VM 6.0 and MVS 3.01 stations. See section 2 for more information. RECORD OF REVISION RESEARCH. INC. PUBLICATION NUMBER SG-0043 Each time this manual is revised and reprinted, all changes issued against the previous version are incorporated into the new version and the new version is assigned an alphabetic level. Every page changed by a reprint with revision has the revision level in the lower righthand corner. Changes to part of a page are noted by a change bar in the margin directly opposite the change. A change bar in the margin opposite the page number indicates that the entire page is new. If the manual is rewritten, the revision level changes but the manual does not contain change bars. Requests for copies of Cray Research, Inc. publications should be directed to the Distribution Center and comments about these publications should be directed to: CRAY RESEARCH, INC. 1345 Northland Drive Mendota Heights, Minnesota 55120 Revision Description October 1980 - Original printing; this publication supports COS Version 1.09. This obsoletes (in general) Parts 2 and 3 of the CRAY-OS System Programmer's Manual, pUblication 2240012. This publication represents a complete rewrite, and changes are not noted by change bars. July 1981 - Reprint with revision. This reprint includes descriptions of the following: changes in the generation of the system; the generation of new programs, MODSEQ, FLODUMP, and SYSREF; the procedures for establishing a system bulletin; new startup parameter file directives that delete previously specified flaws, suppress the recovery of the $SYSTEMLOG buffer, and force a new edition of $SYSTEMLOG; and other miscellaneous technical changes to bring this publication into agreement with the 1.10 version of COS software. All previous printings are obsolete. A-01 June 1982 - Change packet. This printing includes the following additions: examples of COS software generation using the procedural library, ITEMIZE, TEDI, and SID program generation, new COS software procedure parameters, generation steps for Data General station software, revised configuration examples, on-line magnetic tape configuration, OPTION procedures, tape device control, *SKIPEFT directive, new sample jobs in Appendix A, new installation parameters, and the addition of Appendixes 0, E and F. Miscellaneous technical and editorial changes are also included to bring the manual into agreement with the 1.11 version of COS software. B August 1982 - Reprint with revision. This printing incorporates change packet A-01. No other changes have been made. C July 1983 - Rewrite. Major new features documented include a new job scheduler, new program library organization, startup reconfiguration and error recovery, permanent dataset privacy and security, and the Fast Secondary Storage Subsystem. SM-0043 G iii Miscellaneous technical and editorial changes are also included to bring the manual into agreement with the 1.12 version of COS software. A section has been added on dumping the Cray computer system, and a section on adding a task has been moved to the COS EXEC/STP/CSP Internal Reference Manual, CRI publication SM-0040. Specific, detailed system generation procedures and sample COSgen jobs formerly in this manual are now on the COS 1.12 release tape. Detailed installation information for COS 1.12 is now in the System Installation Bulletin. C-01 October 1983 - Change packet. This printing includes procedures which were previously identified as being deferred and are now implemented (generation procedures for Pascal ($PSCLIB and PASCAL) and SEGLDR (SEGLDR and SEGRLS) and the restore process for fast secondary storage, including *RESTORE and dataset restoration error messages), a description of the datasets generated by GCOS and GIOS, and the parameter lists for the miscellaneous generation procedures (GENTAPE, GETBAS, GETPLS, OLDSEQ, NEWSEQ and PURGE). Changes have been made to the privacy system, the Link Configuration Table (LCT), and to the *DXTERR directive. Lists of the UPDATE decks used for CSIM and IOPPL are now included in Appendix C. C-02 February 1984 - Change packet. This printing includes the following features: movement of several utilities from COSPL to UTILPL, Data General Station generation procedure changes, multitasking, generic and controlled devices, COS now released configured for a CRAY-1 M Series computer system, striped disk groups, a new macro (LDEV), and numerous installation parameter changes. Miscellaneous technical and editorial changes are also included to bring the manual into agreement with the 1.13 version of COS software. C-03 December 1984 - Change packet. This change packet reflects feature changes made to COS for the 1.14 release, including Integrated Support Processor (ISP) and X-MP/4 support. Note that the completed ISP code is not available; you will be notified of its availability by letter. Section 2 has been rewritten to include specific examples and procedures for generating site-specific COS software. Startup permanent dataset recovery and hold directives have been removed and messages updated. Rolled job recovery and system directory processing have been added. Installation parameters in Appendix B have been organized into functional groups, with the Solid-state Storage Device (SSD) parameters added. iv SM-0043 G D January 1986 - This reprint with revision brings the manual into agreement with version 1.15 of COS software. The following features were added: permanent dataset archiving, bypass label processing, CONFIG enhancements, DD-39 disk drive support, Disk-queued 1/0, DSC error recovery, large memory scheduling, new expander chassis support, moving NOTE to TOOLPL, 3480 tape support, automatic volume recognition, and on-line diagnostics. The Guest Operating System (GaS) directive has been added, running the Cray operating system UNICOS. The Integrated Support Processor (ISP), formerly deferred, has been implemented. Appendix A on Maximum Memory Algorithm has been removed. This rewrite includes miscellaneous technical and editorial changes. This manual obsoletes all previous printings. E April 1987 - This rewrite brings the manual into agreement with version 1.16 of COS software. The following features were added: SUPERLINK, new SYSDFPL, memory error correction, FSS enhancements, device partitioning, and disk flaw directive enhancements. This rewrite includes a reorganization of sections 1, 2, and appendix A, along with miscellaneous editorial and technical changes throughout the rest of the manual. E-01 September 1987 - This change packet supports the CRAY X-MP/14se computer system and also includes miscellaneous editorial changes. F October 1988 - This reprint with revision supports the COS 1.17 release.

SM-0043 G v PREFACE This manual describes the procedures for generating, installing, and debugging Cray operating system COS software for use on the CRAY Y-MP, CRAY X-MP, CRAY X-MP EA, and CRAY-l computer systems. The manual deals with the following aspects of COS: • Software generation. Section 1 describes the programs and procedures for generation of COS, 1/0 Subsystem (lOS), and Data General Station (DGS) software. Section 2 discusses configuration of COS software to your specific site. Appendix B lists all UPDATE program libraries. • COS installation. Section 3 describes the software release process and the installation and implementation of COS (including security, dataset privacy, and archiving).
