Task 2: Start the Expand Manager Process
Task 2: Start the Expand Manager Process
1. The Expand subsystem requires that the Expand manager process ($ZEXP) be
running during network operation. To start the Expand manager process, enter this
command at the TACL prompt:
> RUN $SYSTEM.SYSnn.OZEXP / NAME $ZEXP, PRI 180, NOWAIT,&
CPU primary / backup
where primary is the number of the processor where the primary process will run
and backup is the processor where the backup process will run.
2. You can also start the Expand manager process at system startup by including this
command in the system startup file:
OZEXP / NAME $ZEXP, OUT $ZHOME, PRI 180, NOWAIT, &
CPU primary / backup
3. To verify that the process is started, enter the TACL process-pair directory (PPD)
command at the TACL prompt:
> PPD $ZEXP
Creating a Persistent Version of the Expand Manager Process
Rather than manually create and start (and restart after processor halts) the Expand
manager you should create a persistent generic version.
1. Use the Kernel subsystem SCF ADD PROCESS command to add the $ZEXP
process to the Expand subsystem:
-> ADD PROCESS $ZZKRN.#ZEXP, NAME $ZEXP, AUTORESTART 1, &
PROGRAM $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.OZEXP, PRIMARYCPU 4, BACKUPCPU 7, &
STARTMODE SYSTEM, STARTUPMSG “<bckp-cpu>”
2. To start the Expand Manager Process, use the Kernel subsystem SCF ST
ART
PROCESS command, as:
-> START PROCESS $ZZKRN.#ZEXP
3. To verify that the process has started successfully, enter this TACL command:
> STATUS $ZEXP
