PXMCOM Commands

START PATHWAY
Considerations
•
This command is executed without any warnings or prompts (which is the same as
the former PATHCOM ! option in underlying products).
•
To increase performance, TERM object configurations are written to the appropriate
PATHMON configuration files only when a START TERM command is issued.
•
During the startup process, the subvolume name of the PXMCOM object file is
stored in the SuperCTL file. When a PXMCOM process subsequently starts a link
control service (LCS) process, it also configures the appropriate server classes to use
the LCS object file at the stored PXMCOM subvolume. This forces all LCS
processes to use the same object file, which makes system administration and
troubleshooting easier.
Examples
The following command starts a Pathway/XM environment from the information
permanently stored in the SuperCTL file (the original configuration processed by
PXMCFG):
START PATHWAY COLD
The following command starts a Pathway/XM environment using the temporary
configuration information stored in the SuperCTL configuration file and the
configuration information stored in the existing PATHMON configuration files:
