Subj:  New RSX-20F PARSER Commands: SET/CLEAR/WHAT RETRY


This memo documents the new PARSER  commands  to  modify  and  display  the
status  flag  RETRY.   RETRY  is a flag in the PARSER that when set enables
RSX-20F to attempt to perform an XCT 71 on a KEEP-ALIVE-CEASED error.  When
the  flag is clear RSX-20F will invoke KLERR to take a snapshot dump of the
KL10 hardware on the occurance of this error.

Command summary:

         SET RETRY       sets the flag and displays status

         CLEAR RETRY     clears the flag and displays the status

         WHAT RETRY      displays the status

To execute the SET/CLEAR RETRY commands the console must be  in  PROGRAMMER
or  MAINTINANCE  mode.   The  WHAT  RETRY  can be executed from any console
setting.

As with other PARSER commands SET?  and CLEAR?   will  display  a  list  of
available  parameters  to  modify which include RETRY.  The commands can be
shortened to unique letters rather than type the whole command.   Also  SET
NO  RETRY is legal and equivilent to CLEAR RETRY as is legal CLEAR NO RETRY
which is equivilent to SET RETRY.
