SET SERVER Command
you enter the command as follows:
SET SERVER ARGLIST "arg 1", """Argument2""", &
argument3, "argument ""4"""
A null argument is specified using either a comma (if the argument is not the last
argument in the list), or double quotes. See the examples later in the discussion of
this command.
For a discussion of when to use parentheses, see the subsection Command
Format on page 8-5.
This attribute is valid for OSS server processes only.
ASSIGN logical-unit , assign-spec
assigns a logical file name to a physical Guardian file and specifies attributes of the
file. The PATHMON process stores the values assigned by this attribute and
sends the values to the server process using an ASSIGN message when the
server process is opened.
The parentheses can be omitted when this attribute is the last one in the SET
SERVER command.
This attribute is valid for Guardian server processes only.
If the server program is written in COBOL, this attribute is used to override the
program file assignment made in the SELECT clause.
logical-unit
specifies the name assigned to a Guardian file and file attributes.
program-unit
specifies the name of the server in the source program. In COBOL, this is
the PROGRAM ID name. The program name can be different from the file
name for the source code or for the run unit. If the server is a subprogram,
this name is used in the CALL statement.
logical-file-name
specifies the name of the file in the server program. logical-file-
name is associated with a physical file. For example, in a COBOL program
logical-file-name is the file description name in a SELECT clause.
Note. Due to the extra characters required by PATHCOM to embed blanks, quotes, commas,
and semicolons, it is possible for the input buffer to be larger than the 24,000-character
maximum. In such cases, PATHCOM allows 500 additional bytes in the input buffer.
Note. ASSIGN values are stored in a configuration file in alphabetic order; they are also
accessed in alphabetic order.
