TS/MP 2.5 System Management Manual

Examples
This command causes PATHCOM to stop all processes controlled by the PATHMON process. The
PATHCOM process is suspended until the shutdown request completes:
SHUTDOWN2, MODE IMMEDIATE
This command causes PATHCOM to display the Pathway environment status every 20 seconds
during an orderly shutdown:
SHUTDOWN2, STATUS AGGREGATE
This command returns control to the PATHCOM process in 30 seconds or earlier if the shutdown
completes, or, if the shutdown has not completed, after 30 seconds have passed:
SHUTDOWN2, UNTIL TIMEOUT 30 SECS
START PATHWAY Command
Use the START PATHWAY command to start a Pathway environment.
START PATHWAY { COOL } [!]
{ COLD } [!]
COOL
starts the PATHMON-controlled objects using the configuration information contained in an existing
PATHMON configuration file. All PATHWAY, PATHMON, and SERVER object definitions, as well
as Pathway/iTS TCP, TERM, and PROGRAM object definitions, remain in the file. The PATHMON
process restores the names of the log files that were in use when the Pathway environment was last
running.
If the PATHMON process name is different than the PATHMON name saved in the PATHMON
configuration file, the PATHCOM process notifies the operator. The operator can either continue the
START PATHWAY COOL command or abort it.
COLD
starts the PATHMON-controlled objects using the configuration information specified with the SET
PATHWAY commands. All SERVER object definitions, and Pathway/iTS TCP, TERM, and PROGRAM
object definitions, must be specified using the appropriate SET command following this command.
If a configuration file already exists, the PATHCOM process notifies the operator. The operator can
either continue the START PATHWAY COLD command or abort it in preparation for cool starting
the environment.
!
specifies that the command is to be run without any warnings or prompts.
When used with COLD, the PATHMON process writes over the existing PATHMON configuration
file with the current configuration information.
When used with COOL, the PATHMON process uses the existing PATHMON configuration file to
restart Pathway and does not issue a warning if the PATHMON process name is different from the
PATHMON name saved in the PATHMON configuration file.
Considerations
• You must define values for the required PATHMON and PATHWAY object attributes before
using the START PATHWAY command with the COLD option.
• You can issue a START PATHWAY command for a different (remote) Pathway environment
(one controlled by a PATHMON process different from the PATHMON process controlling
your local Pathway environment).
