Loading NOL

 NOL is a layered product built on top of G2, which is saved as a knowledge base. To develop a NOL application, you must first load the knowledge base that contains all the modules required to run NOL. You load the KB named nolapps.kb located in the NOL directory. This KB loads all the KB files required to run NOL.

To load NOL initially:

  1. Select Main Menu > Load KB.

  2. Enter the complete pathname of the nolapps.kb KB located in your NOL directory, including double quotes.

    Tip: If you do not know the pathname of the file you want to load, enter the name of a directory and press Return, to display a listing of the contents of the directory. Select a subdirectory or filename from the list that appears and press Return again until you have located the desired file.
    For example, the pathname might look something like this for a UNIX workstation:

    This loads the top-level module, which requires all the modules associated with NOL. G2 reports its progress and displays a message in the Operator Logbook when each module is finished loading.

  3. Select Main Menu > Start.

    This starts G2 Guide, which is a required NOL module, loads all the NOL menus, and displays the top-level menu.
