HIGHPIN Attribute
HIGHPIN Attribute
In order for a process to be run in a high pin (process number > 255), both the program 
object file and the user library file must have the HIGHPIN attribute set to ON. If either 
one is OFF, the process will occupy a low pin. The NonStop AutoTMF software user 
library files are distributed with HIGHPIN ON. If you bind ESCRUNTM or link 
ESCRUNN or ESCRUNNL with another user library, the resulting user library loses the 
HIGHPIN attribute. 
•
To set the HIGHPIN attribute for a TNS user library, use a Binder command, as 
follows:
•
To set the HIGHPIN attribute for TNS/R library file, use the NLD command as 
follows:
Hard-Coding Monitor Name into the Runtime
You can hard-code the monitor name into the NonStop AutoTMF runtime. This method 
adds the special procedure ESCORT_MONITOR_NAME into the AutoTMF runtime. 
Note that this method cannot be used for TNS/E native programs because the 
NonStop AutoTMF software product subvolume does not contain a linkable version of 
the AutoTMF DLL.
1. Create a source file with the following entries and assign the name of the alternate 
monitor to the monname variable ($ZTST in this example):
2. Compile the source file using the appropriate compiler for each type of object file in 
your environment:
BIND CHANGE HIGHPIN ON IN myuserlb
nld -change highpin on mynatlbt
nld -change highpin on mynatlbc
proc ESCORT_MONITOR_NAME( monname:len );
-- -------------------
string .ext monname;
int len;
begin
 monname ':=' "$ZTST";
end; -- ESCORT_MONITOR_NAME
