VSMP Reference

VSMP SET AFFINITY

VSMP SET AFFINITY changes affinity of specified device or devices to either all CPUs on the system or

only to primary processor.

This command is intended for use by VAX MP developers only.

Change of device affinity requires thorough understanding of particular device driver internals.

The syntax is:

VSMP SET AFFINITY { device | device-pattern }

/CPU={PRIMARY|ALL}

Examples of use:

VSMP SET AFFINITY TXA7 /CPU=PRIMARY

VSMP SET AFFINITY TXA* /CPU=ALL

VSMP SET AFFINITY T* /CPU=ALL

VSMP SET AFFINITY * /CPU=ALL

Note that semicolon is not used in device name or name pattern syntax, i.e. the following is not a valid

syntax:

VSMP SET AFFINITY TXA7: /CPU=ALL (invalid syntax!)
