FMDINITPRIORITY
FMDINITPRIORITY
The FMDINITPRIORITY command sets the priority to the program that will take the 
initial processor dump of the halted processor.
priority
is the process priority. The maximum value is 190. The minimum value is 150. The 
default value is 180.
Guidelines
•
You can use the abbreviation fip in place of FMDINITPRIORITY.
•
Change the default value only if you have knowledge of the operational 
environment and normal application distribution in your system environment. In a 
particular environment, raising the value potentially locks out other tasks from 
starting. Lowering the parameter increases the time for the complete processor 
memory to be returned to system operation.
Example
This example sets the FMD initial RCVDUMP priority to 150:
FMDINITPRIORITY 150
FMDPOSTPRIORITY
The FMDPOSTPRIORITY command sets the priority of the second processor dump of 
the halted processor.
priority
is the process priority assigned to the program that takes the second (partial) 
processor dump of the halted processor. The maximum value is 190. The minimum 
value is 150. The default value is 180.
Guidelines

You can use the abbreviation fpp in place of FMDPOSTPRIORITY.
