SCF Reference Manual for the Kernel Subsystem

Adding a DEFINE to a Generic Process
To add a DEFINE to a generic process, enter an SCF ADD DEFINE command that specifies these
attributes:
• DEFINE name
• Class name
• DEFINE attributes
For more details, see the Guardian Programmer’s Guide.
Example: Adding a DEFINE
This example shows how to add the DEFINE attribute to a generic process.

Considerations for Adding an ASSIGN, PARAM, or DEFINE
• Before adding ASSIGN, PARAM or DEFINE, ensure that a generic process exists.
• ASSIGN, PARAM, or DEFINE can be added separately; that is, one at a time.
• You cannot use the same ADD PROCESS command to add both an ASSIGN and a PARAM.
• You cannot specify multiple DEFINEs in the same ADD command.
• For the FILE attribute of CLASS MAP DEFINEs, if you specify the SYSTEM subvolume, the SCF
searches for the file on the SYSTEM subvolume first and then on the current SYSnn subvolume.
