PRIMARY Command
The PRIMARY command is used only when AM3270 is running as a NonStop process
pair. It causes the backup CPU to become the primary CPU and the primary CPU to
become the backup CPU. This is a sensitive command.
Considerations for the PRIMARY Command
•
There is no summary state change associated with the PRIMARY command.
•
If the CPU specified in this command is not the CPU for the backup process, the
command is rejected.
•
For details on the different effects of the PRIMARY command, refer to the SCF
Reference Manual for the Storage Subsystem.

The PRIMARY command has the following syntax:
OUT file-spec

designates the process or line that is to have its primary and backup CPUs
switched. If you omit process-name, the assumed process is switched.
