Unix tool CNSTERM fuzz !!

The cnsterm tool is the PDE Console Subsystem Terminal. You can use it
to display console utility output without starting the xdbw (Database
Window) program. The cnsterm tool is executed from the UNIX command
line, and you do not need to have X-Windows configured to use it, as you
do with the xdbw. The cnsterm tool displays a single window at a time.
When using cnsterm the only command line option available is the
Database Window partition number. Partition numbers 1 through 4 are
the Database Window console utility windows, partition 5 is the Database
I/O window, and partition 6 is the Database Window Supervisor screen.
You will typically start cnsterm in window 6, and then move to that window
to start any console utility programs.
You must be logged on as root to execute cnsterm. To use cnsterm from
the UNIX command line:
1. Logon as Root.
2. Enter cnsterm 6 on the UNIX command line. This will display the
Database Window Supervisor screen.
3. To start a console utility, type in the start command syntax (i.e., start
qryconfig). The display will tell you which partition qryconfig was
started in (i.e., Window 1).
4. Press the Delete key and enter cnsterm 1. You will now see the
contents of Window 1 (i.e., the qryconfig program) and you may now
enter commands to execute the qryconfig utility.
Note: To move between windows, use the Delete key to get a prompt,
and enter cnsterm n, where n is the number of the window you want.
5. Press the DELETE key and enter cnsterm 6 to move back to the
Supervisor display.
6. Type stop 1 to terminate the utility that was running in Window 1 (i.e.,
qryconfig).
You may start as many utilities as there are partitions available in the
Database Window.

Hi ,
This was really useful,but, i have quick question.
When i attempt to open cnsterm 6 on Node1 (Main node) it is working but in rest of the nodes , it is giving an error saying "Attempting to connect to CNS...CNSterm: Cannot open debugger to CNS pipe '/etc/opt/teradata/tdconfig/.pdecnspipe': No such file or directory".

Can you help me , how to get the missing file or how to enable cnsterm on rest of the nodes as well.

Thank you .
Anil
