PRIMARY PATHMON Command
This command closes the LOG2 file:

PRIMARY PATHMON Command
Use the PRIMARY PATHMON command to resume operation of the PATHMON
primary process in the processor defined for this process in the PATHMON
configuration file. Use this command after an individual process or processor failure,
or after a SWITCH command has moved the PATHMON primary process from one
processor to another.
IFPRICPU number
specifies the processor in which the PATHMON primary process is to run. If this
processor is defined for the PATHMON process in the PATHMON configuration file
at the time that you enter this command, the PATHMON process resumes the
operation of its primary process in this processor.
If the PATHMON primary process is already running in this processor, or if this is
not the processor configured for the PATHMON primary process, the PATHMON
process ignores the command.
If you omit this option, the PATHMON process resumes its primary process in the
processor recorded in the PATHMON configuration file. If this processor is down,
no error occurs.
Considerations
After a series of SWITCH and CONTROL commands, the PATHMON primary
process might be running in a processor other than the one you initially defined.
Use the STATUS PATHMON command to display the CPUs where the primary
and backup PATHMON processes are running.
If the PATHMON primary process is not running in its configured processor, this
command causes the primary process to run in that processor.
After successfully executing a PRIMARY command, the PATHMON process logs
this status message:
STATUS - *1077* TAKEOVER BY BACKUP
Examples
This command resumes the operation of the PATHMON primary process in the
processor defined in the PATHMON configuration file:
