Running the Accelerator
The Accelerator runs as a Guardian process, that is, in the Guardian environment.
However, you can run the Accelerator from either the Guardian or OSS environments.
Regardless of the environment from which you run the Accelerator, it can accelerate
object files compiled for either the Guardian or OSS environments.
Guardian Environment
The AXCEL command enables you to run the Accelerator from the Guardian
environment.
