CORBA 2.6 Administration Guide

Determines the home terminal (hometerm) on which server output messages are displayed.2.

Starts the PATHMON process that manages the server processes.3.

Creates a new TS/MP configuration file using the server pool settings contained in the script. Some process

names are defined using the script variables from Step 1.

Starts all the defined server processes.5.

The configuration settings defined by the script are stored in a TS/MP configuration file (PATHCTL). This file is

created in the directory given by the _DEFAULTS define in effect when the script is executed. For details about

the PATHMON process and the PATHCOM commands used in the scripts, see the NonStop TS/MP System

Management Manual.

Process Name in Use

If you try to execute nsdstart when the target TS/MP environment is already running, you get an error

message. The following example shows the result of executing the nsdstart file when the TS/MP environment

for NonStop CORBA is already running.

Issuing the nsdstart Command: Error Condition

/usr/tandem/nsdoms> nsdstart -v

gtacl[5]: unable to run $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.PATHMON, error (11, 12): \

process name error - The file is in use

$Z070: PATHCOM - T8344D42 - (03JUN96)

= set pathway maxassigns 8

set pathway maxassigns 8

$Z070: ERROR - *1009* PATHWAY CONFIGURATION CAN'T BE CHANGED

Pathctl File in Use

If the TS/MP configuration file is in use, you see an error similar to this:

$Z1XY: ERROR - *1017* PATHCTL FILE (012)

To remedy this error, define an alternate location for the TS/MP configuration file by entering the following

command at the OSS command prompt:

add_define =_DEFAULTS class=DEFAULTS volume=\$VOL.SUBVOL

Substitute the desired volume name for VOL and the desired subvolume name for SUBVOL. After executing this

command, executing the nsdstart script causes the TS/MP configuration file to be created in the specified

location.
