Running SCF
run-option
is one or more of the following RUN options, separated by a comma:
CPU num
specifies the number of the processor in which SCF is to execute. The variable 
num is an integer in the range 0 through 15. If you omit this option, SCF 
executes in the same processor as TACL. (However, if you omit the CPU 
option and a $CMON process exists, $CMON may specify a processor other 
than the one in which the current TACL process is executing. For more 
information on $CMON processes, see the 
Guardian Programmer’s Guide
.)
DEFMODE { OFF | ON }
specifies the initial DEFMODE setting and determines which DEFINEs are 
propagated to this SCF session. If you do not include this option, the initial 
DEFMODE setting for SCF is the DEFMODE setting for the current TACL. OFF 
disables DEFINEs for this SCF session. ON enables and propagates all 
specified DEFINES to this SCF session. For more information on SCF support 
for DEFINEs, see the 
SCF Reference Manual for G-Series RVUs
.
IN filename 
specifies the input file (usually a command file) for the SCF process. This file 
name is sent to SCF in its startup message. If you do not include IN 
filename, the SCF process uses the IN file in effect for the current TACL 
(usually your home terminal). 
LIB filename 
specifies the user-library file for the SCF process. This file name is sent to SCF 
in its startup message. If you do not include LIB filename, the SCF process 
assumes the user-library file is $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.SCFLIB. If you use this 
option, you must have previously entered a PARAM SCF^LIB^MOVED 
command. For more information about moving the SCF user library, see the 
PARAM command SCF^LIB^MOVED described in the 
SCF Reference Manual 
for G-Series RVUs
.
NAME [ $process ]
specifies the name you are assigning to SCF. Specify $process as an 
alphanumeric string of one to five characters, the first of which must be 
alphabetic. For network access, the name must be no more than four 
characters. The process name appears in the destination control table (DCT) 
part of the process-pair directory (PPD). If you omit this option, the SCF 
process is not named and is identified only by a processor number and 
process identification number (PIN). If you include NAME with no process 
name, TACL generates a temporary name for SCF.
