PROCESS_LAUNCH_ Procedure
Z^NAME^OPTIONS
specifies whether the process is to be named and, if so, whether the caller is
supplying the name or the system must generate it.
The following table summarizes the possible values for Z^NAME^OPTIONS. TAL
literals are defined in the ZSYSTAL file. Literals in the
zsysc file, for C programs,
are the same as those for TAL except that they contain the underscore (_)
character instead of the circumflex (^) character.
One of the following values must be supplied:
If either the program file or the library file (if any) has the RUNNAMED program-file
flag set, the system generates a name. The generated name is four characters
long, unless Z^NAME^OPTIONS is ZSYS^VAL^PCREATOPT^NAMEDBYSYS5.
In which case, the name is five characters long.
To create a backup process, set Z^NAME^OPTIONS to 3,
Z^PROCESS^NAME^LEN to 0, and Z^PROGRAM^NAME^LEN to 0.
Z^DEBUG^OPTIONS
sets the debugging attributes for the new process.
The following table summarizes the possible values for Z^DEBUG^OPTIONS. TAL
literals are defined in the ZSYSTAL file. Literals in the
zsysc file, for C programs,
are the same as those for TAL except that they contain the underscore (_)
character instead of the circumflex (^) character.

for the creation of the caller’s backup

generate a name. The generated name is
