Memory Protection Parameters
Using LOAD
 When a module is loaded, it links itself to the operating system and
allocates a portion of the computer’s memory for its use, thus using
system resources. When modules are unloaded, allocated resources are
returned to the system.
Some modules, such as LAN drivers and disk drivers, need to be loaded
every time the server is booted. To load modules automatically when the
server boots, include LOAD commands in the autoexec.ncf or startup.ncf
file. (See Using Server Batch Files.)
Parameter Use to
protected module_name Load one module into a new protected address
space. By default the space is named
ADDRESS_SPACEn, where n is a number.
If you want to load more than one module into
the same address space, use the address
space parameter instead of the protected
parameter.
restart module_name Load one module into a new protected space
with restart functionality. By default the space
is named ADDRESS_SPACEn, where n is a
number.
Restart functionality means that if the protected
space abends, the system closes the space,
cleans up its resources, restarts the space, and
reloads modules into it.
address space =
address_space_name
module_name
Load one module into a new protected address
space with a user-defined name. Use this
command when you want to define your own
name for the space and when you want to load
more than one module into the same address
space.
You can specify only one module at a time to
load into the address space, but you can
repeat the command for each module you want
to load into the space.
