The NCP uses the following naming conventions to determine application process
creation from file names on disk:
NM xxssdd
Note The way that the NCP examines a file name on disk means that the file name can be from six through
eight characters long. Additionally, the third and fourth characters can be the same as the third- and
fourth-last characters. For example, the NCP analyzes the file name NM0001 as NM, 00, 00, 01, which
creates one dynamic NC process.
NM
specifies two required characters. You must specify NM as the first and second
characters: otherwise, the NCP does not recognize the file as a NonStop
NET/MASTER MS application process program file.
xx
specifies two required characters. The NCP uses the third and fourth characters to
determine the class of the application process. The following table shows the
process class created from these characters:
File Name on Disk Process Class Created
NMBKnnnn BK
NMEMnnnn EM
NMISnnnn IS
NMMSnnnn MS
NMNCnnnn NC
NMxxnn (xx are any other characters) NC
ss
must be either a two digit decimal number or CC.
If you specify a number, the NCP uses the number to determine the number of
static processes that it starts. Specify 00 to prevent any static process creation.
If you specify CC, the NCP creates one static process in each available CPU.
dd
must be either a two digit decimal number or CC.
If you specify a number, the NCP uses the number to determine the number of
dynamic processes that it starts. Specify 00 to prevent any dynamic process
creation.
