PRIMARY PROCESS Command
PRIMARY PROCESS Command
The PRIMARY PROCESS command is a sensitive command. It causes a processor 
switch, where the backup processor becomes the primary processor, and the primary 
processor becomes the backup processor. It does not cause the ServerNet SAN 
manager process to stop running. 
The PRIMARY command syntax for ServerNet SAN manager process is:
OUT file-spec
causes any SCF output generated for this command to be directed to the specified 
file.
processor
is the processor number of the current backup processor for the ServerNet SAN 
manager process. If omitted, the current backup processor is assumed.
Considerations
•
Wild cards are not supported for the PRIMARY PROCESS command.
•
If the specified processor is not the processor of the backup process, the 
PRIMARY command is rejected.
•
If the specified processor is the processor of the primary process, no change 
occurs.
PRIMARY PROCESS Command Example
This command causes the previously configured backup processor for the ServerNet 
SAN manager process (processor 3) to become the primary processor:
 > PRIMARY PROCESS $ZZSMN, 3
PRIMARY [ / OUT file-spec / ] PROCESS $ZZSMN [, processor ]
