TS/MP 2.5 System Management Manual

1. The PATHMON process creates the server by calling the NEWPROCESS or PROCESS_CREATE_
procedure.
The server process context includes all DEFINEs specified in the server class configuration
(using the SET SERVER DEFINE command).
2. The PATHMON process sends the server a startup message.
The startup message has a header that is constructed from what you specified for the IN, OUT,
and VOLUME attributes in the SET SERVER command. If you specified a character string for
the STARTUP attribute, that is also included.
3. If the server replies with a value of 70 (FECONTINUE) to the startup message, the PATHMON
process sends ASSIGN and PARAM messages to the server.
The ASSIGN messages are constructed directly from the information you provided for the ASSIGN
attribute to the SET SERVER command. The PARAM message contains one item for each attribute
value you specified for the PARAM attribute of the SET SERVER command. The number of the
processor not chosen as the primary processor is reported in the BACKUPCPU attribute, which the
PATHMON process adds to the PARAM message. For a description of how this value is chosen,
see the information about CPUS attribute of the SET SERVER command.
Examples
This command starts all of the static servers defined for all server classes:
START SERVER *
This command starts only the static server processes defined for the named server classes:
START SERVER (IMF-CLASS, ORD-SRV, MFG-SRV)
This command starts a single process named $SLIB in the server class IMF-CLASS:
START IMF-CLASS, PROCESS $SLIB
STATS SERVER Command
Use the STATS SERVER command to display resource usage and performance statistics, including
response time information. These statistics provide information about server class operations. They
are tracked by the ACS subsystem processes and TCPs that have links to a server class.
The ACS subsystem processes collect these statistics continuously; you cannot set an attribute that
controls ACS subsystem processes track statistics. The STATS attribute of the SET TCP command
controls whether a TCP tracks its statistics.
NOTE: The ACS subsystem processes do not collect performance statistics. Performance statistics
are collected only by the TCPs, which are configured in your environment only if you are running
the Pathway/iTS product. For a discussion of statistics collections, see “Tuning Your System by
Using Statistics” (page 117).
