command was executed. You can determine whether a LAN interface process or server
process is restartable by using the STATUS LAN or STATUS SERVER command.
Reports the current state of the OSS NFS subsystem. You can select the desired level
of reporting detail.
STATUS SUBSYS
Stops the operation of all OSS NFS objects in an orderly manner. This command
prevents any new requests but gives you the option either to immediately stop pending
STOP SUBSYS
requests and abort all active links or else to allow these requests to finish before the
LAN object stops. STOP SUBSYS is the normal way to close down the OSS NFS
subsystem when you expect to restore it to operation later in the same configuration.
Explicitly stopping all LAN interface processes and server processes does not stop the
SUBSYS object. This example starts the OSS NFS subsystem and any restartable LAN
and SERVER objects:START SUBSYS $ZNFSSTART SUBSYS, SUB ALL, SEL
STOPPEDBefore you start the SUBSYS object, the SUBSYS object must be stopped.
START SUBSYS starts multiple SERVER objects in the same sequence that they originally
started.
Prevents new remote mount requests. While this command is in effect, these requests
receive no response and clients making them eventually time out. Use this command
STOPOPENS SUBSYS
to prevent new access to the OSS NFS subsystem when you are preparing to stop it.
STOPOPENS SUBSYS does not affect either pending open requests or existing remote
mounts.
PROCESS Object
The PROCESS object represents the OSS NFS manager process. There is only one such object in
an OSS NFS subsystem.
Configuration and Prerequisites
There are no prerequisites for configuring the PROCESS object. It is the first OSS NFS object created
in the process of configuring the OSS NFS subsystem; it is created using the TACL RUN command.
For a detailed description of running the OSS NFS manager process, see Chapter 4 (page 36).
Commands That Operate on the PROCESS Object
After a PROCESS object has been created, it requires little routine management. Note that most
of the typical sensitive SCF commands (ADD, DELETE, START, and STOP) do not apply to the
PROCESS object. The only SCF commands that change the state of the PROCESS object are ALTER,
PRIMARY, and STATS. These SCF commands operate on the PROCESS object:
Modifies certain process attributes.ALTER PROCESS
Reports configuration attributes of the PROCESS object. You can select the desired level
of reporting detail.
INFO PROCESS
Returns a list of files opened on behalf of the OSS NFS process manager itself.LISTOPENS PROCESS
Reports the names of the processes, LANs, and servers that are subordinate to the OSS
NFS manager process. You can limit the report to only those objects in selected states.
NAMES PROCESS
Swaps the backup process with the primary process of the OSS NFS manager process
pair.
PRIMARY PROCESS
Returns operational statistics (counter, timer, and usage values) collected for the process
and can reset all counters.
STATS PROCESS
Returns the current state and immediate history of the primary and backup processes.STATUS PROCESS
Reports the product name, number, and release date of the OSS NFS manager process
and optionally its underlying software.
