ACTIVATE PROCESS
ACTIVATE PROCESS
The ACTIVATE PROCESS command changes the state of a process from SUSPENDED
to STARTED. ACTIVATE PROCESS is a sensitive command.
The ACTIVATE PROCESS command has the following syntax:
\system-name
identifies the system in which the APLMGR process is running.
$appl-mgr-name
identifies the suspended APLMGR process you are activating.
indirect-process-name
identifies the suspended initiator or responder process you are activating.
ACTIVATE PROCESS Considerations
You cannot send this command directly to an initiator or a responder process. If you
specify indirect-process-name, the APLMGR process routes it to the
specified initiator or responder process.
When a responder is activated, if the ALLOWSU attribute for that responder is set to
ON, the responder automatically creates the number of subdevices configured in the
MAXATTACH attribute of the process (as shown in the INFO PROCESS display).
If ALLOWSU is OFF, then no subdevices are created. For more information on
MAXATTACH and ALLOWSU, see the OSI/FTAM Configuration and
Management Manual.
The process must be in the SUSPENDED state for this command to be completed
successfully. Use of the ACTIVATE PROCESS command changes the state of the
process to the STARTED state.
When you are using command files, you might want to follow this command with a
DELAY command having a time value of approximately five seconds. The delay is
necessary only if the command following the ACTIVATE PROCESS command
expects the process to be in the STARTED state.
