Changing Backup CPUs and Dump Files
Adding Objects
You add TCP, TERM, and PROGRAM objects using the SET and ADD commands for
that particular object. Once you have configured and added an object, you can start the
object using the START command for that object.
For complete information about configuring, adding and starting objects, see Section 2,
Configuring Pathway/iTS Objects.
Altering Objects
You can alter TCPs and TERM, and PROGRAM objects by entering the ALTER
command for the specified object type.
Before using the ALTER command for a TCP or TERM object, you must first stop the
object with the STOP command. The following example changes the screen program
object library and maximum number of terminals for the TCP named TCP-PRIME, and
then restarts TCP-PRIME:
= STOP TCP TCP-PRIME
= ALTER TCP TCP-PRIME, TCLPROG $DATA.NEWAPP.POBJ, MAXTERMS 8
= START TCP TCP-PRIME
Deleting Objects
You can delete TCPs and TERM, and PROGRAM objects by entering the DELETE
command for the object type you wish.
In response to the DELETE command, the PATHMON process removes the object
definition from the PATHMON configuration file.
Before using the DELETE command for a TCP or a TERM object, however, you must
first stop the object with the STOP command. For example, to delete the TERM named
TERM-050 from your system, you would enter:
= STOP TERM TERM-050
= DELETE TERM TERM-050
Changing Backup CPUs and Dump Files
Although you must stop most PATHMON-controlled objects before you change their
attributes, you can change three attributes for your TCPs while they are running:
The backup CPU for the process
The destination file for the memory dump written by the process, if the process
encounters an internal or fatal error
The LOG file
