Not exactly what you asked for, but we did help out the process somewhat by
using the substitution features (%1 %2 etc.) to build a nested macro. That
way, we do not have to code the whole macro everytime, just the variables,
which you have to do anyway.
One recommendation I would make, though, is to stick a "commit" command betwee
n the define and the associate, and another after the associate. There used
to be some unique features that required this sort of coding. I think they
have been removed via PTFs, but it is probably still a good practice to
follow.
If you want to see what we did, drop me a note.

Subject: Registering multiple nodes via macro
10-21-96 04:48 PM
During the process of writing an ADSM macro that will:
1. register a node
2. associate the node to a scheduler
I discovered that the ADSM macro language do not have
a looping feature (goto, ifthenelse, etc.). I would
like to use this macro to register/associate multiple
nodes but without some type of looping feature I find
this very impossible.
I would also like to perform this task via Win95 ADSM
Admin client. I am aware that I can hit the F3 key (repeat),
type in new data and run the macro again but there seemed
to be a bug in the 95 client that prevents the F3 key from
working.
If anyone has found a way to perform the task for multiple
nodes I would be very interested. Thanks....
