START TCP

This command initiates operation of TCP processes. This command cannot initiate

external TCPs (TCPs that are controlled by another Pathway/XM environment). If the

primary processor defined for a TCP is unavailable, the PATHMON process starts the

TCP in the backup processor defined for that TCP.

term-name

specifies the name of a TERM object. The START TCP command is issued to the

TCP that manages this TERM object.

GROUP group-name

specifies the name of a set of TERM objects, each configured as a member of the

specified group. The START TCP command is issued to each TCP that manages a

TERM object associated with this group.

issues the START TCP command to all TCP processes in the Pathway/XM

environment. If option is also specified, PXMCOM issues the command to all

TCP processes meeting the criteria specified.

SEL or STATE

issues the START TCP command only to TCP processes in the specified state. You

can substitute SEL for STATE. Possible states are:

PENDING NOT PENDING

RUNNING NOT RUNNING

STOPPED NOT STOPPED

This command affects only those TCP processes in the STOPPED state. If you

specify any other state, the system displays the command prompt again; it does not

display any output or generate an error message.

START TCP { term-name }

{ GROUP group-name }

{ * , option }

option is:

{ SEL [ NOT ] { PENDING | RUNNING | STOPPED } }

{ STATE [ NOT ] { PENDING | RUNNING | STOPPED } }
