Using Procedures Affected by KMSF
Native processes do not use swap volume or file values specified by these procedures,
so those input values are ignored. The PROCESSINFO and PROCESS_GETINFO_
procedures return the volume and file names (if specified). The values returned are the
names specified when the process was created, not the actual swap volume managed
by KMSF.
Use these procedures to specify or return the number or maximum number of data
pages to be allocated for the user data stack for a TNS process:
CHECKMONITOR
GETSYNCINFO
NEWPROCESS
NEWPROCESSNOWAIT
PROCESS_CREATE_
PROCESS_SPAWN_
SETSYNCINFO
Native processes do not use these data page values, so they are ignored. Similar heap
attribute values for native processes can be set with eld utility or the
PROCESS_LAUNCH_ procedure.
Use these procedures to specify or return the volume or file of the default extended
data segment for a TNS process:
PROCESS_CREATE_
PROCESS_GETINFOLIST_
PROCESS_SPAWN_
Native processes do not use these volume or file values, so they are ignored. The
PROCESS_GETINFOLIST_ procedure returns the volume name (if specified) and #0.
The value returned is the name specified when the process was created, not the actual
swap volume managed by KMSF. Depending on the operations performed by these
procedures, you might need to specify new or different parameters. See the
procedure’s description in the Guardian Procedure Calls Reference Manual for details.
Note. You can continue to use the NEWPROCESS, NEWPROCESSNOWAIT, and
PROCESS_CREATE_ procedures to specify the volume for temporary files created by TNS
and native processes.
