TS/MP 2.5 Release Supplement

1. Shut down all PATHMONs in the Pathway domain.
2. Update the ACSCTL file.
3. Use the ACSCTL option in the CONTROL command
4. Start the PATHMONs in the Pathway domain.
For more information on the ACSCTL file syntax, see “ACSCTL File Configuration” (page 18).
NOTE: If you fail to follow the above-mentioned procedures, an inconsistent ACS environment
can be resulted. Any syntax error in the ACSCTL file will cause the CONTROL command to fail. All
new errors have been documented in the TS/MP Reference Manual.
Example 5 (page 71) shows an old ACSCTL file and Example 6 (page 71) shows a new ACSCTL
file.
Example 5 Old ACSCTL File
[ACS Domain]
# Name must match the name given in ADD ACS command
# And the system name must match the current system.
A = \A
[Pathway Domain]
# Multiple PATHMONs on the same system
%PMX = \A.$PM1:40, \A.$PM2:40, \A.$PM3:20
%PMY = \A.$PM4, \A.$PM5
[Owner Membership]
ACS.* = %PMX
ACS.SMITH = %PMY
Example 6 New ACSCTL File
[ACS Domain]
# Name must match the name given in ADD ACS command
# And the system name must match the current system.
A = \A
[Pathway Domain]
# Multiple PATHMONs on the same system
%PMX = \A.$PM1:40, \A.$PM2:60
%PMY = \A.$PM4, \A.$PM5
[Owner Membership]
ACS.* = %PMX
ACS.SMITH = %PMY
The new ACSCTL file removes PATHMON \A.$PM3 from Pathway domain %PMX. To update the
ACS subsystem with the new ACSCTL file, perform the following steps:
1. Shut down all PATHMONs in the Pathway domain %PMX.
2. Update the ACSCTL file.
3. Use the CONTROL command and ACSCTL option.
4. Start PATHMONs \A.$PM1 and \A.$PM2.
Examples
The following command restarts ACS subsystem processes in CPUs 2 and 3 on the local system
