Summary
NOTE: This procedure is supported for compatibility with previous software and should not be
used for new development.
The ACTIVATEPROCESS procedure returns a process or process pair from the suspended state to
the ready state. (A process is put in the suspended state if it is the object of a call to the
SUSPENDPROCESS procedure, or if it is suspended as the result of a SUSPEND command issued
from the command interpreter.)
Syntax for C Programmers
This procedure does not have a C syntax, because it is superseded and should not be used for
new development. This procedure is supported only for compatibility with previous software.

Reserved.<0:3>[3]
Processor number where the process is executing.<4:7>
PIN assigned by the operating system to identify the process in the processor.<8:15>
If process-id[0:2] references a process pair and process-id[3] is specified as -1, then
both members of the process pair are activated.
Condition Code Settings
indicates that either ACTIVATEPROCESS failed or no process designated as process-id exists.< (CCL)
