Starting TFDS Manually
SCF 2> start process $zzkrn.#tfds
The add process command specifies that SCF automatically starts TFDS during
future startups. It also specifies the primary and backup processors in which TFDS will
run. The $system.sys00.tfds option is the typical location where TFDS is installed.
Your system number might be different.
The start process command starts TFDS. If SCF does not automatically start
TFDS during a future startup, use this command to manually start TFDS in SCF.
Specifying the Configuration File Location
Use the following commands to start TFDS when the TFDS configuration file location is
specified:
SCF 1> add process $zzkrn.#tfds, autorestart 1, primarycpu 0, &
name $zdmp, program $system.sys00.tfds, startupmsg "1, &
$datanew.mytfds.tfdsconf", startmode application, &
defaultvol $datanew.tfdssai
SCF 2> start process $zzkrn.#tfds
The add process command specifies that SCF automatically starts TFDS during
future startups. It also specifies the primary and backup processors in which TFDS will
run. The $datanew.mytfds.tfdsconf option lets you specify a location and name
for the TFDS configuration file.
The start process command starts TFDS. If SCF does not automatically start
TFDS during a future startup, use this command to manually start TFDS in SCF.
To customize TFDS configuration defaults to meet your needs, proceed to Configuring
TFDS Options on page 3-3.
On a system running a G-series RVU, you can also start TFDS manually without SCF
if necessary. For information about manually starting TFDS, see the following
subsection.
Starting TFDS Manually
To run TFDS as a process pair, use the following HP Tandem Advanced Command
Language (TACL) command. (If you need to avoid starting TFDS through SCF, you can
use this command for systems running a G-series RVU.)
