PROCESS Objects
NAMES MTA $ZMHS.#WASHDC, SUB ALL
NAMES MTA $ZMHS.#NYC05, SUB ONLY
The following command shows the attributes you must include when adding an MTA
object. The last four attributes set a pair of OSI addresses for the object. Up to seven
pairs are possible; at least one pair is required.
ADD MTA $ZMHS.#BOSTON, REM-APPLIC-CONTEXT MTS-TRANSFER, &
REM-MTA-NAME MTA127, ISO-COUNTRY-NAME US, &
REM-ADMD ATT, REM-TSELECTOR-1 4D5258323541, &
REM-NSAP-1 703285003020, &
LOC-TSELECTOR-1 4D5258323541, &
LOC-NSAP-1 703285003011
The remote OSI address of the pair is an address of the adjacent MTA represented by
this MTA object. The local OSI address is an address of this OSI/MHS subsystem.
Note that each address has two parts: TSELECTOR (same as OSI TSEL) and NSAP.
Two is the fewest number of parts ever required for an OSI address in OSI/MHS.
PROCESS Objects
A PROCESS object identifies an OSI/MHS process that is subordinate to a GROUP
object. Groups are of five kinds: GI, LO, MR, MS, and RS. Each group contains a
single process or set of processes.
For manipulation by SCF commands, these processes are identified by the groups to
which they belong. To create or delete a PROCESS object, or to change its state or
attributes, you direct a command to its group.
The SCF commands that affect a PROCESS object directly are all informational
commands. Using the PROCESS object type, you can:
Find out the names of some or all processes in the OSI/MHS subsystem
Obtain trace records from a process and statistics about its performance
Find out the operational status of a process
PROCESS Object States
An OSI/MHS process has a summary state of DEFINED only. You cannot directly
ascertain the state of an OSI/MHS PROCESS object from within the subsystem, but
you can infer it from the summary state of the group that contains the process. See
GROUP Object Summary States on page 2-49 for more information.
