Command Syntax
sign (=). You can enter a SAFECOM command at the prompt. To exit SAFECOM,
enter the EXIT command. (For more information, see Section 4, SAFECOM
Session-Control Commands.)
run-opt
is any run option for the RUN command of the command interpreter. (For a
complete list of run options, see the description of the RUN[D] command in the
TACL Reference Manual.)
Run options frequently used with SAFECOM include:
CPU cpu
IN filename
NAME [$process-name]
NOWAIT
OUT [listfile]
PRI priority
CPU cpu
is the number of the CPU in which this SAFECOM process is to run. If you omit
this option, the command interpreter starts SAFECOM in the same CPU in
which the command interpreter is running. (If your installation operates a
$CMON process, $CMON can override a CPU specification.)
IN filename
specifies the file that SAFECOM uses as a command input file. If you omit the
IN option, SAFECOM uses the IN file currently defined for your command
interpreter (usually your home terminal).
You can specify an EDIT file containing SAFECOM commands as an IN file.
When you use an EDIT file as the IN file, filename can be a partially qualified
disk file name.
NAME [$process-name]
assigns a process file name to your SAFECOM process.
If you give your SAFECOM process a name, that name appears in the
destination-control table (DCT). You can use the process name in commands
that manage or monitor processes (such as the command-interpreter STATUS
command).
If you include NAME but omit $process-name, the system assigns a name to
your SAFECOM process.
If you omit the NAME option, your SAFECOM process runs as an unnamed
process. It can be identified only by the system-assigned process number.
Note. If you include a cmd in your command to run SAFECOM, SAFECOM will run in execute-
and-quit mode, execute the command cmd, and ignore the IN option, if specified.
