process-class-CONFIG Records
subsystem-MANAGER
This is the name of the subsystem manager process, if the subsystem uses a single fixed 
manager process for each Tandem node. 
Default: None.
Considerations:  When this form is used for automation-I-supported subsystems, do 
not set the *-MGR-REQ and MGR-REQUIRED flags (FLAGS parameter), and do not 
use the UNDER $manager qualifier in the DSNM command syntax. If SCP is the 
control interface for the subsystem, you do not need to include CI-CONFIG class 
records.
SUBSYSTEM-INTERFACE
This parameter is the component name of the CI-CONFIG class that describes the 
control interface for the subsystem 
Default: None.
Considerations:  The SUBSYSTEM-INTERFACE name appears in the 
COMPONENT key field of the SUBSYSTEM-INTERFACE-CONFIG parameter 
record. It may or may not be the component of the corresponding subsystem interface 
process class.
process-class-CONFIG Records
Parameter records with the CLASS key field set to process-class-CONFIG allow one 
class of DSNM process to access processes in another class. Process class configuration 
parameters are specific to a particular type of process but not to a particular installation. 
You do not normally specify these parameters yourself unless you are configuring 
additional subsystems for DSNM support. 
You must provide necessary I process configuration information so that these records 
can be added to the DSNMCONF file. The following process class configurations are 
delivered in the DSNMCONF file:
•
COMMAND-SERVER-CONFIG
Specifies fixed command server process configuration parameters (as opposed to 
site-specific command server configuration information contained in COMMAND-
SERVER class records).
