1 – Arguments
pidadr OpenVMS usage:process_id type: longword (unsigned) access: modify mechanism: by reference Process identification (PID) of the process to be resumed. The pidadr argument is the address of a longword containing the PID. The pidadr argument can refer to a process running on the local node or a process running on another node in the cluster. You must specify the pidadr argument to delete processes in other UIC groups. prcnam OpenVMS usage:process_name type: character-coded text string access: read only mechanism: by descriptor-fixed-length string descriptor Name of the process to be resumed. The prcnam argument is the address of a character string descriptor pointing to the process name. A process running on the local node can be identified with a 1- to 15-character string. To identify a process on a particular node on a cluster, specify the full process name, which includes the node name as well as the process name. The full process name can contain up to 23 characters. You can use the prcnam argument to resume only processes in the same UIC group as the calling process, because process names are unique to UIC groups, and the operating system uses the UIC group number of the calling process to interpret the process name specified by the prcnam argument. You must use the pidadr argument to delete processes in other UIC groups.
