#ACTIVATEPROCESS Built-In Function

Use #ACTIVATEPROCESS to restart a suspended process or process pair. This

function invokes the ACTIVATEPROCESS operating system procedure.

\node-name

is the system where the process resides.

$process-name

is the name of the process or process pair.

cpu,pin

is the CPU number and process number for the process.

Result

#ACTIVATEPROCESS returns a nonzero integer if it is successful; otherwise, it

returns zero.

Considerations

•

If you omit the process specification, #ACTIVATEPROCESS activates the default

process (the last process started by the current TACL, or the one for which TACL

most recently paused), if that process is still running.

•

To find the identity of the default process, use the #PROCESS built-in function.

#ACTIVATEPROCESS [ [\node-name.]{$process-name | cpu,pin} ]
