NonStop Operations Guide for H-Series and J-Series RVUs

For example, to check the status of the PATHMON process for the Pathway environment on
your system:
> PATHCOM $ZVPT
$Y290: PATHCOM - T9153D20 - (01JUN93)
COPYRIGHT TANDEM COMPUTERS INCORPORATED 1980 - 1985, 1987 - 1992
= STATUS PATHWAY
PATHCOM responds with output such as:
RUNNING
EXTERNALTCPS 0
LINKMONS 0
PATHCOMS 1
SPI 1
FREEZE
RUNNING STOPPED THAWED FROZEN PENDING
SERVERCLASSES 13 5 18 0 0
RUNNING STOPPED PENDING
SERVERPROCESSES 13 40 0
TCPS 1 0 0
RUNNING STOPPED PENDING SUSPENDED
TERMS 1 0 0 0
This output provides information about the number of Pathway processes and servers that are
running, stopped, and so forth.
4. To check the state of the PATHMON process within the Pathway environment and its status
for your application:
= STATUS PATHMON
PATHCOM responds with output such as:
PATHMON -- STATE=RUNNING CPUS 6:1
PATHCTL (OPEN) $GROG.VIEWPT.PATHCTL
LOG1 SE (OPEN) $0
LOG2 (CLOSED)
REQNUM FILE PID PAID WAIT
1 PATHCOM $Y622 8,001
2 TCP $Y898
PATHMON States
The status of the PATHMON process can be either STARTING or RUNNING:
• STARTING indicates that a system load or cool start has not finished.
• RUNNING indicates that a system load or cool start has finished.
The other elements of the STATUS PATHMON output are:
• CPUS shows the number of the primary and backup processors in which the PATHMON
process is running. If the backup PATHMON process is not running, the second number is
blank.
• PATHCTL, LOG1, and LOG2 contain information about the PATHMON control file and the
logging files.
