MON (Monitor) Objects
ALTER Alters one or more attributes of the MHS manager process pair. 
These affect the manager backup process and associated files and 
the collection of subsystem event messages by EMS. ALTER works 
dynamically for attributes such as CPU and BACKUPCPU while 
MON is in a STARTED state.
You can alter the attributes without stopping the MHS manager. But 
to alter the COLLECTOR-1 attribute, you must first stop the 
SUBSYS object and all its subordinate objects. COLLECTOR-1 
specifies an alternate collector for OSI/MHS accounting-event 
messages. 
INFO Lists the attribute values for the MHS manager process pair.
LISTOPENS Identifies and describes all the processes that have opened the 
MON object and have OPEN requests against the MHS manager.
NAMES Displays the object type and the name of the manager process.
PRIMARY Switches the primary process of the specified (or assumed) MHS 
manager from its current CPU to the backup. Concurrently switches 
the backup manager process from the backup CPU to the primary.
STATS Displays accumulated statistics, mostly about memory usage, for the 
MHS manager process pair.
This command resets the statistics counters if you include the 
RESET option.
STATUS Displays the operational status of the MHS manager. The summary 
states of the primary and backup processes appear separately.
STOP Changes the state of the MHS manager process pair from STARTED 
to STOPPED.
Since the MON object has no subordinate objects of its own, the 
STOP and the ABORT commands have the same effect.
Stopping the MON object is the final step in an orderly shutdown. 
Issuing a STOP or ABORT command on the MON object stops the 
MHS manager process.
Caution. You rarely need  to stop the MHS manager. If you need to do so, you must first stop 
all CLASS objects subordinate to the SUBSYS object, then the SUBSYS object, and only then 
the MON object.  For more information, see Caution
 following the ABORT command described 
previously.
TRACE Controls the generation of trace records, which can help you debug 
the MHS manager process pair.
