START Command
attribute-parameter
is one of the attribute parameters described under PROCESS Attribute Set on
page B-7.
$existing-process-name
is the name of a process that has an OSCONFIG entry whose attribute values you
want the new process definition to inherit. You can override any of the attributes for
the existing process by specifying one or more attribute parameters.
START Command
The START command starts the execution of a process that has an OSCONFIG entry.
After start-up, COUP marks status of the OSCONFIG entry as STARTED. If the
primary processor is not available, the process is still marked as STARTED, and the
process starts when the processor is reloaded. After you have started an SMF process,
use the PUP LISTDEV command to display information about it. Only members
associated with the super-group (255,n) can execute the START command. If the
process is a storage pool or virtual disk process that has not been configured using
PUP, it remains in the INACTIVE state until it is configured.
listfile
is the file to which you want COUP to send its output. The file can be a disk file, a
tape file, a printer, or a process. The default listfile is your home terminal.
PROCESS
identifies the type of COUP object that is the target of the command. You can omit
this keyword if a previous ASSUME command set the default object type to
PROCESS.
process-name
identifies the process you want to start.
STATUS Command
The STATUS command retrieves attribute information about one or more currently
executing processes. You need no special privileges to execute the STATUS
command.
