PRIMARY PROCESS Command for TCP6SAM
PRIMARY PROCESS Command for TCP6SAM
The SCF PRIMARY PROCESS in TCP6SAM lets you switch connections to a backup 
processor. The information maintained about the Guardian sockets is checkpointed to 
the backup when the backup is started. This lets the TCP6SAM process switch the 
roles of the primary and backup processes.
Command Syntax 
OUT file-spec
causes any SCF output generated for this command to be directed to the specified 
file.
PROCESS TCP6SAM-name
is the name of the TCP6SAM process. If you omit the object name, SCF uses the 
assumed object name. For information about the ASSUME command, see the 
SCF Reference Manual for G-Series RVUs or the SCF Reference Manual for H-
Series RVUs.
CPU cpu-number 
is the number of the processor of the backup process. This attribute is required.
Examples
To cause the TCP6SAM primary process to become the backup process (the attribute 
CPU 2 identifies the processor where the former backup process resided):
SCF> PRIMARY PROCESS $ZTC1, CPU 2
Considerations
If the specified processor is not the processor of the backup process, the command is 
rejected.
START Command
The START command initiates the operation of TCP6MONs, SUBNETs and routes for 
the NonStop TCP/IPv6 subsystem. When the subsystem has successfully completed 
processing this command, the specified object is placed in the STARTED summary 
state. You can start a SUBNET or a route, but not a process. If a process is not started, 
it is undefined.
This is a sensitive command.
