Starting and Stopping TRANSFER
You start your TRANSFER system with the XCOOL file, which starts the PATHWAY
system that includes TRANSFER. You then use the ADMIN application to set up
depots for correspondents and to change parameters, if necessary, for TRANSFER and
its applications.
You shut down a TRANSFER system by running the XSTOP program to shut down the
PATHWAY system at each node. If other parts of the application are to continue
running, only the TRANSFER processes need be stopped. It is also possible to shut
down TRANSFER at a single node; the node then becomes unavailable to a network-
distributed TRANSFER application.
