START PATHWAY Command
START PATHWAY Command
Use the START PATHWAY command to start a Pathway environment.
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 the
PATHMON process controlling your local Pathway environment).
START PATHWAY { COOL } [!]
{ COLD } [!]
