Object States
data communications subsystem object by specifying the profile name in the PROFILE
attribute in the ADD DEVICE command.
Object States
Objects can have operational states, such as STOPPED or STARTED. The exact
sequence of states an object goes through varies from object to object and from
subsystem to subsystem. Some subsystem commands recognize only a few states.
States are discussed with each subsystem description.
The operational state of an object at a given instant is important. For example, certain
commands have no effect on objects when those objects are in a particular state but
can affect the object when it is in another state.
