PROCESS_GETPAIRINFO_ Procedure
search-nodename:length input:input
STRING .EXT:ref:*, INT:value
if 
length is not 0 and search-index is present, specifies the name of the node 
on which the search is to take place. PROCESS_GETPAIRINFO_ uses 
search-
nodename to determine the node to search on each call, so its contents should not 
be altered between calls. The value of 
search-nodename must be exactly 
length bytes long and must be a valid node name.
options input
INT:value
specifies one or more options for the call as follows:
<0:12> Reserved (specify 0)
<13> 0 Return information only for running processes.
1 Also return information for named processes that are not started, but 
the process names are reserved.
<14> 0 Resolve a partially qualified process name in 
pair using the caller’s 
=_DEFAULTS DEFINE.
1 Resolve a partially qualified process name in 
pair using the caller’s 
node.
<15> 0 Return information only for named processes.
1 Also return information for I/O processes (that is, processes controlling 
devices or volumes). To return information on I/O processes that are 
not started, also set 
options .<13> to 1.
If this parameter is omitted, 0 is used.
ancst:maxlen input,output:input
STRING .EXT:ref:*, INT:value
if present and if 
maxlen is not 0, returns the process file name of the ancestor of 
the specified process or process pair. The 
maxlen parameter specifies the length 
in bytes of the string variable 
ancst. 
ancst-length output
INT .EXT:ref:1
if 
ancst is returned, contains its actual length in bytes.
