Specifying Process Names
Specifying Process Names
You can identify a named process with either a fully or a partially qualified process
name. To specify more than one named process in a command, you can use wild
cards in a process name, or you can use a process name list. However, you cannot
use wild cards to specify a process name in an ADD command.
Fully Qualified Process Names
A fully qualified process name includes both the system name and process name.
\system-name
is a system name as described in Fully Qualified Disk-File Names on page 2-4. For
processes running on a system that is not part of a network, omit \system-name
from the process name.
$process-name
is the name defined for a process when that process is run. This name can be one
to five alphanumeric characters long, the first of which must be alphabetic.
Examples
=ADD PROCESS \apex.$pc06
=INFO PROCESS \ajax.$rpt*
=FREEZE PROCESS \fred.$clup
Partially Qualified Process Names
Process names can be partially qualified. As with device names, the only part of a
process name you can omit is the system name. When you enter a process name
without a system name, SAFECOM expands the partially qualified name by adding the
current default system name.
$process-name
is expanded to \system-name.$process-name.
\system-name
is the current default system name.
[\system-name.]$process-name
$process-name
