Process Definition Commands
PINFO Command
Use the PINFO command to display the status and characteristics of one or more
defined processes.
DETAIL
gives detailed information on status and characteristics of the specified defined
processes. See Figure 2-3 for the display format provided by the DETAIL option.
process-list
is a list of unique, symbolic names that you have assigned to defined processes. If
you do not give a process name (or if you specify an asterisk (*)), information for all
your defined processes is displayed.
PINFO Listing Formats
Figure 2-2 and Figure 2-3 are examples of the listing formats for the PINFO command.
Note that both the formats provide the symbolic process name, the program file name,
line counts for both input and output queues, and the readiness state of the process. The
detail format additionally provides the operating system process name (or CPU and pin
numbers), the in and out file name for the process, the current default wait mode, the
setting of the HISTORY option, and the setting of the SHOWPROMPT option.
In these two figures, NAME is the symbolic name you have assigned to the process, and
PROGRAM is the file portion of the program file name. If the program is being run
remotely, the file name is prefixed with the system name.
The INPUT and OUTPUT columns list the number of lines of text in the input and
output queues, respectively. If either of these queues is empty for a given process, the
word EMPTY is displayed.
Note. If your TACL use list is not set up to include :utils:DP, you must precede the PINFO
command with :utils:dp.
