SET TCP
DEBUG { ON | OFF }
specifies whether a TCP enters debug mode on startup.
If you omit this attribute, the default is OFF.
DUMP {ON | OFF}
specifies whether a TCP writes the contents of its data stack and extended data
segment information to a disk file if an internal or fatal TCP error occurs.
If you omit this attribute, the default is OFF
ON
directs a TCP to create one or more disk files and write the contents of its data
stack and its extended data segment to these files. The information is written to
an internally-named file that resides on the same volume and subvolume as the
configuration file for the PATHMON process monitoring the TCP.
After creating 10 primary process and 10 backup process dump files, the TCP
stops performing memory dumps. This prevents writing over existing dump files
that may indicate the original cause of a problem, and prevents filling a disk
with dump files.
OFF
directs a TCP not to write data stack information to a file when it encounters an
internal or fatal error.
GUARDIAN-LIB file-name
specifies the name of the library object file that contains additional TCP code space
for user conversion routines. If you supply a value for this attribute, the operating
system uses this file name and the file named in the PROGRAM attribute to access
the TCP object code. For example:
SET TCP PROGRAM $VOL1.SUBVOL1.PATHTCP2
SET TCP GUARDIAN-LIB $VOL1.SUBVOL1.PATHTCPL
In this example, whoever starts the PATHMON process must have WRITE and
EXECUTE access to the object file PATHTCP2.
ON Directs the TCP to enter debug mode. If the PATHMON process is
configured with INSPECT, the TCP enters the Inspect program instead
of the DEBUG program.
OFF Directs the TCP not to enter debug mode.
Note. The value defined for the CONTROL TCP DUMP attribute overrides the value
defined in the SET TCP DUMP attribute.
