The runCVT utility allows system operators and lab personnel to 
manage DHCTs in download groups. Through the runCVT utility, 
system operators can add DHCTs to download groups, delete DHCTs 
from download groups, assign DHCTs in a download group to the 
fast refresh list, and can create an entry in the crontab file for DHCTs 
in a download group to be continuously fast-refreshed. 

The instructions in this chapter describe how to prepare a text file to 
be used for adding DHCTs to a download group, and then how to run 
the runCVT utility, along with its supported options. 

There are specific messages that need to be transmitted between the 
DNCS GUI and the osm process of the DNCS in order to affect 
changes to the download groups. Unfortunately, the runCVT cannot 
be used to transmit these messages. Occasionally, you will need to add 
or delete one DHCT to or from a download group manually, through 
the DNCS GUI, in order to get the DNCS to respond to the runCVT 
utility. Messages displayed by the runCVT utility will tell you when 
this is necessary.
