START PATHWAY Command
•
Upon successful completion of the shutdown process, the PATHMON process is 
stopped.
•
For more information on strategies for shutting down a Pathway environment, see 
Starting and Stopping a PATHMON Environment
 on page 2-1.
Examples
This command causes PATHCOM to stop all processes controlled by the PATHMON 
process. The PATHCOM process is suspended until the shutdown request completes:
SHUTDOWN2, MODE IMMEDIATE
This command causes PATHCOM to display the Pathway environment status every 20 
seconds during an orderly shutdown:
SHUTDOWN2, STATUS AGGREGATE
This command returns control to the PATHCOM process in 30 seconds or earlier if the 
shutdown completes, or, if the shutdown has not completed, after 30 seconds have 
passed:
SHUTDOWN2, UNTIL TIMEOUT 30 SECS
START PATHWAY Command
Use the START PATHWAY command to start a Pathway environment. 
COOL
starts the PATHMON-controlled objects using the configuration information 
contained in an existing PATHMON configuration file. All PATHWAY, PATHMON, 
and SERVER object definitions, as well as Pathway/iTS TCP, TERM, and 
PROGRAM object definitions, remain in the file. The PATHMON process restores 
the names of the log files that were in use when the Pathway environment was last 
running.
If the PATHMON process name is different than the PATHMON name saved in the 
PATHMON configuration file, the PATHCOM process notifies the operator. The 
operator can either continue the START PATHWAY COOL command or abort it.
COLD
starts the PATHMON-controlled objects using the configuration information 
specified with the SET PATHWAY commands. All SERVER object definitions, and 
Pathway/iTS TCP, TERM, and PROGRAM object definitions, must be specified 
using the appropriate SET command following this command.
START PATHWAY { COOL } [!]
 { COLD } [!]
