SCF Support for DEFINE Statements
This command also can be used to force idle subsystem product modules to remain in
execution indefinitely. This command has this syntax:
nnn
is the time, in minutes, an idle subsystem product module can remain active. nnn
is in the range 1 through 999 (1 minute through 16 hours, 39 minutes).
If you do not specify this PARAM, a subsystem product module, once started,
remains active as long as SCF is running.
-1
is the value to specify when you want the subsystem product modules to remain
active for an indefinite period of time.
SCF Support for DEFINE Statements
SCF supports the use of DEFINE statements for its files. Refer to the Guardian
Procedure Calls Reference Manual for more information about DEFINEs. If both
DEFINE statements and ASSIGN commands exist, the DEFINE statements supersede
the ASSIGN commands. The following DEFINE statements are pertinent to SCF:
PARAM SCF^RPM^TIMEOUT { nnn | -1 }
DEFINE=_DEFAULT_SCP Overrides the default SCP name to be used. If
present, this DEFINE supersedes the command
PARAM DEFAULT^SCP; otherwise, SCF uses the
PARAM DEFAULT^SCP value or $ZNET in the normal
manner.
DEFINE=_SCFCSTM Redirects the SCFCSTM file. If this DEFINE is
present, it is used; otherwise, SCF opens the
SCFCSTM file in the normal manner.
DEFINE=_SCF_SEARCH Is used by SCF to search for files. SCF updates the
system name and SYSnn portions of this DEFINE
whenever a SYSTEM command is executed.
DEFINE=_SCFTEXT Redirects the SCFTEXT file. If this DEFINE is
present, it is used; otherwise, SCF opens the
SCFTEXT file in the normal manner.
DEFINE=_SCP Redirects the SCP object file. If this DEFINE is
present, it is used; otherwise, SCF opens the SCP
object file in the normal manner.
