PROCESSPARAM
PROCESSPARAM=“ startup-string ”
specifies a startup string to pass to a process. Usually, this is the string following
the last slash (/) enclosing the TACL RUN options (CPU, PRI, NAME, and so on).
If no RUN options are specified, it is the string that follows the program object file
name in the TACL RUN command.
The startup string is passed to the process in the startup message. If you do not
enclose a value between the opening and closing quotes (“ ”), a null string is
passed to the process. You can specify a startup string from 0 through 200
characters long.
Considerations
NonStop NET/MASTER MS does not impose any restriction on the use of this
operand. Whether you use this operand depends on whether a process requires
startup parameters; it is only meaningful to processes that require parameters to
be passed as part of the startup message.
Distributed Systems Network Management (DSNM) processes and security exit
processes require startup parameters while NonStop NET/MASTER MS processes
do not require startup parameters.
The following table and summarizes the process types for which the
PROCESSPARAM operand is applicable:
