Pathway Application Example 2
2. Modify the Pathway startup file to start the VHS process before the Pathway
system is started and to cold load the Pathway system. The TERM option of the
command to start PATHMON should be set to the VHS process, for example,
$VHS. Setting the TERM option will ensure that all the servers have the same
home terminal as the PATHMON process.
In this example, the Pathway startup file includes two commands to run with VHS.
These commands are in boldface:
3. When you start the PATHMON process of your Pathway system, be sure to use the
TERM option to specify the home terminal of PATHMON. In this example, the VHS
process is named $VHS:
1> PATHMON / NAME $PM, NOWAIT, CPU 3, TERM $VHS /
By default, each server class uses the home terminal of the PATHMON process.
Pathway Application Example 2
If you have already hardcoded the HOMETERM attribute for every server in the
Pathway configuration file, you will have to modify the HOMETERM attribute as
specified for the EMPLOYEE-SERVER in this example. The command that specifies
VHS as the home terminal is in boldface.
OBEY $SYSTEM.STARTUP.STARTVHS
PURGE PATHLOG
CREATE PATHLOG, 4
PURGE PATHCTL
ASSIGN PATHCTL, PATHCTL
PATHMON /NAME $DJCT, OUT PATHLOG, NOWAIT, TERM $VHS, CPU 0/
PATHCOM /IN PATHCNFG/ $DJCT
Note. If you create your new Pathway configuration file by using the OBEYFORM facility,
then all TCPs and servers will have the SET HOMETERM parameter set. Check to make
sure all home terminals are set to the VHS process.
