Starting an SCP Process Using the RUN Command
NAME process-name
specifies the name assigned to the resulting SCP process. This option is required—
all SCP processes must be named.
NOWAIT
specifies that the SCP process will run independent of the TACL process that 
interprets the RUN command. Always specify NOWAIT for an SCP process.
CPU cpunum
specifies the processor in which the primary process runs. If you do not include this 
option, the process runs in the same CPU as the command interpreter that processes 
the RUN command. (A $CMON process, if one exists, might assign an alternative 
CPU. See the Guardian Programmer’s Guide.)
HIGHPIN ON | OFF
specifies whether the SCP process runs at a high PIN. If you specify ON and the 
HIGHPIN attribute of the SCP object file is set to ON, the SCP process runs at a 
high PIN if one is available. If you specify OFF, the SCP process runs at a low PIN. 
The SCP program has the HIGHPIN object-file attribute set to OFF, so processes 
derived from it run at a low PIN regardless of the value you specify for the 
HIGHPIN process option. For information on setting the HIGHPIN SCP object file 
attribute, see Creating a High-PIN SCP Process
 on page 2-11. For considerations 
relating to the interaction of high-PIN and low-PIN processes in a network, see 
Interprocess Communications Restrictions
 on page 3-9.
