Command Overview
SET MONITOR
The SET MONITOR command sets monitor process configuration parameters within
the RDF configuration memory table. The supplied values are not applied to the RDF
configuration file, however, until you issue an ADD MONITOR command.
CPUS primary-CPU : backup-CPU
identifies the CPUs in which the monitor process is to run as a process pair on the
primary system; primary-CPU is the primary CPU; backup-CPU is the
backup CPU. Values range from 0 through 15. The defaults are 0:1.
PRIORITY priority
identifies the execution priority for the monitor process; priority is the
execution priority, from 10 through 199. The default priority is 165.
PROCESS process-name
identifies the process name for the monitor process; process-name is any unique,
valid process name of up to 5 characters; the first character must be a dollar sign ($).
You cannot specify reserved process names of the form $Xddd, $Yddd, or
$Zaaa, in which d is any numeric character and a is any alphanumeric character.
Names longer than 5 characters, including the $ sign, are invalid.
If you omit this option, the operating system selects a name for the monitor process.
If a monitor process needs to be started on the backup system after an RDF takeover,
the Compaq NonStop™ Kernel operating system names it.
For clarity in managing your RDF environment, it is strongly recommended that you
always explicitly name the monitor process.
RESET PROCESS
resets the PROCESS process-name attribute to the unassigned state and causes
the operating system to select a name for the monitor process. This option is useful
only if you have already issued a SET MONITOR PROCESS process-name
command, have not yet issued an ADD MONITOR command, and now decide to
have the operating system select the name.
SET MONITOR monitor-option
where monitor-option is:
{CPUS primary-CPU : backup-CPU }
{CPUS 0 }
{PRIORITY priority }
{PROCESS process-name }
{RESET PROCESS }
