process and starts the OSS SEEP with that name. An EMS event is generated to notify the
stopping of the running process.
Examples
• To change the configuration of the OSS name server process $ZPNS to use processor 0 as
its primary processor and processor 1 as its backup processor, enter the following command:
ALTER /OUT CMDLOG/ SERVER #ZPNS, CPU 0, BACKUPCPU 1, &
INODECACHE 64000, LINKCACHE 64000
This command assigns the OSS name server process the default value of 4096 entries for its
link cache and a value of 2048 entries for its inode cache. This command also sends
informational messages to the file CMDLOG.
• To change the configuration of the OSS message-queue server process $ZMSGQ to use
processor 3 as its primary processor and processor 1 as its backup processor, enter the
following command:
ALTER /OUT CMDLOG/ SERVER #ZMSGQ, CPU 3, BACKUPCPU 1, &
MAXMSG 8192
This command assigns the OSS message-queue server process the value 8192 as the maximum
number of messages allowed on the message queue. This command also sends informational
messages to the file CMDLOG.
• To change the OSS sockets local server process $ZPLS so that three attempts to restart it in its
primary or backup processor are made when its primary processor is unavailable for more
than 30 seconds during an automatic restart, enter the following command:
ALTER /OUT CMDLOG/ SERVER #ZPLS, BACKUPCPUOK TRUE, &
MAXWAITTIME 30, AUTORESTART 3, DESIREDSTATE STARTED
This command also sends informational messages to the file CMDLOG.
This command is not valid for systems running AF_UNIX Release 2 software.
ALTER SUBSYS, ALTER MON, and ALTER PROCESS Commands
The ALTER SUBSYS, ALTER MON, and ALTER PROCESS commands all change the configuration
of the OSS Monitor. The information entered in the command is added to or altered in the
ZOSSPARM file.
The syntax of the ALTER SUBSYS, ALTER MON, and ALTER PROCESS commands is:
ALTER [ /OUT filename1/ ] [ object-type ] [ process ]
{ [ , AUTOSTART { AUTO | MANUAL } ]
[ , FSCKCPU processor_number ]
[ , IOTIMEOUT seconds ]
[ , REPORT [ filename2 | NULL ]
[ , ZOSSVOL volume ] }
OUT filename1
specifies the name of a Guardian output file for informational messages. You can either read
this file with a text editor or display it with the FUP COPY command.
object-type
is one of the following:
MON | PROCESS | SUBSYS
MON, PROCESS, and SUBSYS all specify the OSS Monitor.
