ACTIVATE Command

The ACTIVATE command causes a suspended object to return to the STARTED state.

This is a sensitive command.

OUT file-spec

causes any SCF output generated for this command to be directed to the specified

file. The variable file-spec is defined on page 5-9.

object-spec

is the object to be activated. The variable object-spec is defined on page 5-2.

You can omit object-spec if it has been assumed. (See ASSUME Command on

page 5-36.) The objects that can be activated depend on the subsystem.

SUB [ subobjtype ]

selects the subordinate objects the command affects. The variable subobjtype

can be a subordinate object type or one of the keywords ONLY, ALL, or NONE, as

explained under SCF Subdevices on page 3-5.

SEL [ NOT ] state

directs the command only at objects in the specified state or only at those not in

the specified state. Valid states are listed in Table 3-1 on page 3-7. The use of this

option is subsystem-specific.

Consideration

To suspend an object, use the SUSPEND command (described on page 5-118).

Examples

•

The following command causes all assumed objects that have been suspended to

be returned to the state they were in prior to suspension:
