Considerations
• Remote process name characteristics
CREATEREMOTENAME creates a process name in local form. This name can be passed
directly to the NEWPROCESS[NOWAIT] procedure as the name parameter in order to create
a remote process having that name. It is unnecessary to append a system name to the process
name since the physical location of the program file specified in the NEWPROCESS
file-name includes the system number.
• HP reserved process names
The operating system reserved process name space includes these names: $Xname, $Yname,
and $Zname, where name is 1 through 4 alphanumeric characters. Do not use names of this
form in any applications.
• Remote system DCT
The creation of a process name does not create a process or make an entry in the remote
system's DCT.
Example
CALL CREATEREMOTENAME ( NAME , SYS^NUM );
