Monitoring LINKMON Processes
You set the SERVER SECURITY parameter using the Guardian security values A, G,
O, -, N, C, and U.
For example, this command enables only those Pathsend processes running under the
process ID and on the same system as the user specified by the SERVER OWNER
attribute to access the server class:
= SET SERVER SECURITY "O"
N is the default security for the SERVER SECURITY attribute. Any Pathsend
process with the appropriate network security (described earlier in this section) can
access the server class.
Altering Server Class Security
Once your PATHMON environment is configured and running, you can use the ALTER
SERVER command to change the values of SERVER OWNER and SERVER
SECURITY. For example,
= ALTER SERVER CLASS-1, OWNER 123,45, SECURITY "O"
A server class must be stopped before you issue the ALTER command.
Monitoring LINKMON Processes
Using PATHCOM, you cannot control or configure LINKMON processes. You can,
however:
Check the value for the MAXLINKMONS parameter.
Display information about LINKMON processes communicating with your
PATHMON environment.
Display statistics for server classes to which LINKMON processes have links.
Checking the Value for MAXLINKMONS
To check the value that you defined for MAXLINKMONS and to check the number of
LINKMON processes currently accessing your PATHMON environment, use the INFO
PATHWAY command, as shown in this example:
= INFO PATHWAY
If you set MAXLINKMONS equal to 16 and there are currently four LINKMON
processes that have one or more links to server classes within your PATHMON
environment, the INFO PATHWAY command returns this information for the
MAXLINKMONS parameter:
MAXLINKMONS 16 [ CURRENTLY 4]
