SECEXITPROCESS O For a security exit process, the first number specifies the
PCPU but the second number is ignored even though you
must supply it. If the security exit process runs as a process
pair, you must specify the BCPU as one of the arguments in
the startup parameters passed to the process (specified by the
PARAM PROCESSPARAM command). For a security exit
process supplied by Tandem, this is the first argument.
STATICPROCESS O For a static process not running as a process pair, the first
CPU is the first preference for creating and executing the
process and the second CPU is the second preference.
For a static BK, EM, or NC process running as a process pair:
If the primary process is running in the first CPU, the
primary process creates the backup process in the
second CPU, if the CPU is available.
If the primary process is running in the second CPU, the
primary process creates the backup process in the first
CPU, if the CPU is available.
If the primary process is not running in either the first or
second CPU, the first CPU is the first preference for
creating the backup process and the second CPU is the
second preference, if either CPU is available.
If the preferred CPU is unavailable, the primary process
creates the backup process in the next higher-numbered
CPU (selected in a round-robin fashion) relative to the
CPU in which the primary process is currently executing.
If no CPU is available, the primary process creates the
backup process when the appropriate CPU becomes
available. Meanwhile, the primary process runs without a
backup process (and will not survive a failure).
N.A. Not applicable O Optional
