TS/MP 2.5 System Management Manual

specifies the node name to be used.
$volume
specifies the volume to be used.
subvolume
specifies the subvolume to be used.
Considerations
• If the node, volume, and subvolume are omitted and the current command file is a disk file,
this command sets the default settings to that of the current command file.
• If the OBEYVOL command is not issued, the default setting is the node, volume, and subvolume
in which PATHCOM is running.
Examples
This command sets the default node, volume, and subvolume:
OBEYVOL \NY.$MKT.ABC
This command sets only a default volume and subvolume; the node automatically defaults to the
one in which PATHCOM is running:
OBEYVOL $ENGR.DEF
OPEN Command
Use the OPEN command to specify the name of the PATHMON process—and therefore the Pathway
environment—to which PATHCOM directs subsequent commands. This command is useful when
more than one Pathway environment is running on the same NonStop system. You can direct
commands to multiple PATHMON processes during a single PATHCOM session.
OPEN [ \node.]$pm-process
\node
specifies the HP node name or node number on which a PATHMON process can be opened. If this
parameter is omitted, PATHCOM opens the PATHMON process with the same node name as itself.
$pm-process
specifies the name of the PATHMON process to be opened.
Errors
This table lists the most common error that can occur during the processing of the OPEN command:
Is Displayed When…This Message…
You attempted to start a PATHCOM process but too many processes are
running concurrently under the PATHMON process.
The number of concurrently running processes (TCPs, external TCPs, ACS
subsystem processes, PATHCOMs, and SPI processes) that a PATHMON
FILE OPEN ERROR - pathmon-name - FILE
IN USE (12)
process can handle is limited. For more information on Pathway configuration
limits and defaults, see “Configuration Limits and Defaults” (page 318).
Retry the command to start the PATHCOM process; after one of the other
processes stops, the PATHMON process can start the PATHCOM process.
