6. Use a DELETE command to remove the definition of the generic process from the configuration
file:
-> DELETE
If you are deleting many instances of a generic process (configured, for example, with the
CPU ALL attribute), it may take a few moments for the DELETE operation to finish.
7. Use an INFO command to verify (by the absence of an entry or by a “not found” message)
that all instances of the generic process have been removed from the system configuration
database:
-> INFO
KERNEL E-00017 Object \EAST.$ZZKRN.#GP Not Found
Configuring and Managing ASSIGNs, PARAMs, and DEFINEs for a
Generic Process
This section describes the process to be followed to pass the ASSIGN, PARAM, and DEFINE
messages to a generic process through SCF.
Passing the ASSIGN, PARAM, and DEFINE attributes to a generic process is similar to the way
these messages are passed to a process started on TACL.
The considerations at the end of each subsection, describe the limitations in using these attributes.
Adding an ASSIGN to a Generic Process
To add an ASSIGN to a generic process, enter an SCF ADD ASSIGN command that specifies
these attributes:
• ASSIGN name
• ASSIGN file attribute (for details, see the TACL Reference Manual)
Example: Adding an ASSIGN
This example shows how to add the ASSIGN attribute to a generic process.
