Naming Conventions for the PROCESS Object
Naming Initiator and Responder Processes to Be Accessed Through
APLMGR
The first of the two forms used for naming initiator and responder processes is used to
send SCF commands to initiator and responder processes indirectly through the
APLMGR process. You can use this form by issuing the command with the following
process specification:
PROCESS [\system-name.]indirect-process-name
system-name identifies the system in which the APLMGR process is
running.
indirect-process-name consists of three separate components,
appl-mgr-name, proc-type, and internal-name, and must be
entered in the following manner:
$appl-mgr-name.#proc-type.internal-name
appl-mgr-name identifies the name of the APLMGR process and is
a Guardian process name.
proc-type identifies one of the two types of initiator and responder
processes using the proc-type keywords: FTAMI, for the initiator
process, and FTAMR, for the responder process.
internal-name identifies the name by which APLMGR recognizes
the initiator or responder process that is the object of an SCF command.
This variable, which is defined initially in the ADD PROCESS
command used to configure the process, can consist of a maximum of
eight characters. (While it is not required that the internal name and the
Guardian process name for an initiator or responder process be identical,
this practice is recommended to avoid confusion.)
Naming Initiator and Responder Processes to Be Accessed Directly
The second form of initiator and responder process names allows some SCF commands
to be issued directly to an initiator or responder process using the following naming
convention:
PROCESS [\system-name.]$process-name
In this case, process-name is the valid Guardian name of an initiator or responder
process. system-name identifies the system in which the named process is running.
