Viewing Current Limits
To determine whether or not current limits are being reached, use the INFO
PATHWAY command. The INFO PATHWAY command shows the maximum number
possible and the actual number in use.
For information about the maximum number possible, see Appendix C, Configuration
Limits and Defaults.
Adding, Altering, and Deleting Objects
These sections describe how to add, alter, and delete SERVER, TCP, TERM, and
PROGRAM objects.
Certain commands that modify an object can be performed only if the object is not
running. For example, you can only delete an object that is stopped. So, before you
modify an object, you should be aware of its state: stopped, suspended, running, or
running but subject to a pending stop request. To determine the state of an object, use
the STATUS command for that particular object, as described earlier in this section.
Adding Objects
You add SERVER, TCP, TERM, and PROGRAM objects using the SET and ADD
commands for that particular object. Once you have configured and added an object,
you can start the object using the START command for that object.For complete
information about configuring and adding objects, see Section 3, Configuring Objects
in a PATHMON Environment.
Note. When specifying limits, you should always allow space for system growth. If you specify
sufficient limits initially, you can avoid the need to reconfigure and cold start your system to
specify new limits. For more details, see Configuring Objects in a PATHMON Environment
on
page 3-1.
Note. You manage TERM, TCP, and PROGRAM objects only if your environment includes the
Pathway/iTS product. For information about the Pathway/iTS product, see the
Pathway/iTS
