ALTER MONITOR
the CPU number (in the range of 0 to 15) of the primary monitor process.
PRIORITY process-priority
a process priority (in the range of 1 to 199) for the monitor process
The PRIMARY, BACKUP, and PRIORITY options specify process creation parameters 
that are used when starting the monitor process.
ALTER MONITOR
Modifies attributes of an existing monitor process. The changes take effect when the 
monitor process is restarted.
These attributes can also be changed using ALTER MAPDB.
process-name
the name of a monitor process. The name must have 4 characters. 
If omitted, $ZASY is assumed.
BACKUP cpu-number
the CPU number (in the range of 0 to 15) of the backup monitor process.
HOMETERM [ file-name | NONE ]
the home terminal for the monitor process.
If omitted, or if it was not specified when the MapDB was created, the home 
terminal is set to the default EMS collector. The default EMS collector is $0, or the 
EMS collector configured by setting the global parameter EMSCOLLECTOR.
Note that internally, the default hometerm of the monitor is $ZHOME, as displayed 
by the TACL command STATUS $<process-name>, because an EMS collector 
cannot be specified as the hometerm of a process when the process is launched. 
Functionally however, the home terminal for the monitor process is the default 
EMS collector, as shown by the Autosync STATUS MONITOR
 command.
If NONE is specified or file-name is omitted, the hometerm is re-set to the default 
described above.
ALTER MONITOR [ process-name ] {, option... }
option is
{ PRIMARY cpu-number }
{ BACKUP cpu-number }
{ PRIORITY process-priority  }
{ HOMETERM [file-name | NONE ] }
