VMS Help  —  SET  PROCESS
    Changes the execution characteristics associated with the
    specified process or kernel thread for the current terminal
    session or job. If no process is specified, changes are made
    to the current process.

    Requires GROUP privilege to change other processes in the same
    group. Requires WORLD privilege to change processes outside your
    group.

    Format

      SET PROCESS  [process-name]

1  –  Parameter

 process-name

    Requires that you own the process or that you have GROUP
    privilege and that the process is in your group.

    Specifies the name of the process for which the characteristics
    are to be changed. Process names can be up to 23 alphanumeric
    characters long in the following format:

    [node-name::]process-name

    o  The node name can have as many as 6 alphanumeric characters.

    o  The colons (:)  count for 2 characters.

    o  The process name can have as many as 15 characters.

    A local process name can look like a remote process name;
    therefore, if you specify ATHENS::SMITH, the system checks for
    a process named ATHENS::SMITH on the local node before checking
    node ATHENS for a process named SMITH.

    The default process is the current process.

    Process names are unique only within a particular UIC group.
    You cannot specify the process name for a process outside of
    your group. To change the characteristics of a process outside
    of your group, you must use the qualifier /IDENTIFICATION=pid.
    The process name parameter is ignored. If you include neither
    the process name nor the /IDENTIFICATION qualifier, the current
    process is assumed.

2  –  Qualifiers

2.1    /AFFINITY

       /AFFINITY (Alpha/Integrity servers only)
       /NOAFFINITY

    Allows bits in the kernel thread affinity mask to be set or
    cleared individually, in groups, or all at once. This qualifier
    is mutually exclusive with the /CAPABILITY qualifier.

                                   NOTE

       The SET PROCESS/[NO]AFFINITY command fails if none of the
       specified CPUs has the capabilities required by the process.

    The /NOAFFINITY qualifier clears all affinity bits currently set
    in the current or permanent affinity masks, based on the setting
    of the /PERMANENT qualifier. Specifying the /AFFINITY qualifier
    has no direct effect, but merely indicates the target of the
    operations specified by the following secondary parameters:

    /SET=(n[,..Sets affinity for currently active CPUs defined by the
               CPU IDs n, where n has the range of 0 to 63.
    /CLEAR=(n[,Clears affinity for currently active CPUs defined by
               the position values n, where n has the range of 0 to
               63.
    /PERMANENT Performs the operation on the permanent affinity
               mask as well as the current affinity mask, making the
               changes valid for the life of the kernel thread. (The
               default behavior is to affect only the affinity mask
               for the running image.)

    The secondary qualifiers can all be used at once as long as the
    affinity bits defined in the /SET and /CLEAR parameters do not
    overlap.

    The privileges required to execute the SET PROCESS/AFFINITY
    command match those required by the $PROCESS_AFFINITY system
    service. ALTPRI is the base privilege required to make any
    modifications, and the only privilege required to modify the
    current owner's kernel thread. Modifications within the same UIC
    group require GROUP privilege. Modifications to any unrelated
    kernel thread require WORLD privilege.

    As with the other SET PROCESS qualifiers, the bit operations
    occur on the current process if no /IDENTIFICATION qualifier
    or explicit process name parameter is specified. Specifying a
    process name does not imply that all kernel threads associated
    with the process are affected; the SET PROCESS command affects
    only the initial kernel thread of a multithreaded process.

2.2    /AUTO_UNSHELVE

       /AUTO_UNSHELVE
       /NOAUTO_UNSHELVE

    Controls whether the process automatically unshelves files.

    Note that the /NOAUTO_UNSHELVE qualifier does not work across a
    cluster. It can be issued only for a process on the same node,
    including as the default case, the process from which the command
    is issued.

2.3    /CAPABILITY

       /CAPABILITY
       /NOCAPABILITY

    Allows bits in the process user capability mask to be set or
    cleared individually, in groups, or all at once. This qualifier
    is mutually exclusive with the /AFFINITY qualifier.

                                   NOTE

       The SET PROCESS/[NO]CAPABILITY command fails if there is no
       CPU with the required set of capabilities.

    The /NOCAPABILITY qualifier clears all user capability bits
    currently set in the current or permanent capability masks,
    based on the setting of the /PERMANENT qualifier. Specifying the
    /CAPABILITY qualifier has no direct effect, but merely indicates
    the target of the operations specified by the following secondary
    qualifiers:

    /SET=(n[,..Sets all user capabilities defined by the position
               values n, where n has the range of 1 to 16.
    /CLEAR=(n[,Clears all user capabilities defined by the position
               values n, where n has the range of 1 to 16.
    /PERMANENT Performs the operation on the permanent user capability
               mask as well as the current user capability mask,
               making the changes valid for the life of the kernel
               thread. (The default behavior is to affect only the
               capabilities mask for the running image.)

    The secondary qualifiers can all be used at once as long as the
    user capability bits defined in the /SET and /CLEAR parameters do
    not overlap.

    The privileges required to execute the SET PROCESS/CAPABILITY
    command match those required by the $PROCESS_CAPABILITIES system
    service. ALTPRI is the base privilege required to make any
    modifications, and the only privilege required to modify the
    current owner's kernel thread. Modifications within the same UIC
    group require GROUP privilege. Modifications to any unrelated
    kernel thread require WORLD privilege.

    As with the other SET PROCESS qualifiers, the bit operations
    occur on the current process if no /IDENTIFICATION qualifier
    or explicit process name parameter is specified. Specifying a
    process name does not imply that all kernel threads associated
    with the process are affected; the SET PROCESS command affects
    only the initial kernel thread of a multithreaded process.

2.4    /CASE_LOOKUP

       /CASE_LOOKUP=keyword

    The valid keywords for this qualifier are BLIND and SENSITIVE.

    VSI strongly recommends that you use caution when enabling case
    sensitivity in your processes.

    See the Guide to OpenVMS File Applications for additional
    information.

2.5    /CLEAR

       /CLEAR=(n[,...])

    Clears all user capabilities or CPU affinities defined by the
    position values n specified by the /CAPABILITY or the /AFFINITY
    qualifier.

2.6    /DUMP

       /DUMP[=NOW] [/ID=pid] [process-name]
       /NODUMP (default)

    Causes the contents of the address space to be written to the
    file named (image-name).DMP in the current default directory
    (where the image name is the same as the file name) when an image
    terminates because of an unhandled error. To specify a target
    process, indicate either the process ID or the process name.

    Using the NOW option (available on Alpha and Integrity server
    systems only) causes the targeted process to dump as soon as
    possible. This is especially useful for hung processes.

    You can then analyze the dump with the ANALYZE/PROCESS_DUMP
    utility, the Debugger, or the System Dump Analyzer (SDA).

2.7    /GLOBAL

    Modifies the global cell SCH$GL_DEFAULT_PROCESS_CAP. This global
    cell is used to initialize the user capability mask of processes
    when they are started.

2.8    /IDENTIFICATION

       /IDENTIFICATION=pid

    Requires GROUP or WORLD privilege for processes other than your
    own.

    Specifies the process identification (PID) value of the kernel
    thread for which characteristics are to be changed. The target
    process must be on the same node as the process from which the
    command is issued. The /IDENTIFICATION qualifier overrides the
    process-name parameter.

    The PID is assigned by the system when the process is created.
    When you specify a PID, you can omit the leading zeros.

    If you use the /IDENTIFICATION qualifier, the process-name
    parameter is ignored.

                                   NOTE

       The /IDENTIFICATION qualifier allows the SET PROCESS command
       to affect individual kernel thread PIDs; because each thread
       is a separate runnable entity, this command treats them as
       discrete entities in terms of affinities and capabilities.

2.9    /KERNEL_THREAD_LIMIT

       /KERNEL_THREAD_LIMIT=n

    Changes the limit of the number of kernel threads that can be
    created in the process. If the value specified is higher than
    the SYSGEN parameter MULTITHREAD, an error message is returned.
    Specifying the value 0 makes the process use the systemwide
    limit set by the MULTITHREAD parameter.

    Per-process kernel thread limits can be controlled using one
    of the following DCL commands:

       $ SET PROCESS/KERNEL_THREAD_LIMIT=n
       $ RUN/KERNEL_THREAD_LIMIT=n
       $ SPAWN/KERNEL_THREAD_LIMIT=n

2.10    /NAME

       /NAME=string

    Changes the name of the current process to a string of 1 to 15
    characters.

2.11    /PARSE_STYLE

       /PARSE_STYLE=(keyword)

    Allows a user to indicate how commands are to be parsed.

    Setting a particular parse style tells DCL how it should handle
    command syntax. User programs can also examine the state of this
    setting if they need to use different parse rules.

    The valid keywords for this qualifier are TRADITIONAL and
    EXTENDED. These keywords are mutually exclusive and cannot be
    negated.

    If the /PARSE_STYLE qualifier is not specified, the default is
    the TRADITIONAL format.

    Keyword             Explanation

    TRADITIONAL         Indicates that commands should be examined using the
    (default)           former (prior to Version 7.2) rules for DCL syntax.

    EXTENDED            Indicates that commands should be examined using a
    (Alpha/Integrity    syntax that allows ODS-5 file specifications.
    servers
    only)

    The main differences for DCL when EXTENDED parse rules are in
    effect are:

    o  Arguments to foreign commands are case preserved. You can get
       the command string by calling LIB$GET_FOREIGN.

       C/C++ programs that use the argc/argv mechanism will have
       unquoted arguments in lowercase unless the C Run-Time
       Library logical DECC$ARGV_PARSE_STYLE is set to ENABLE. When
       DECC$ARGV_PARSE_STYLE is enabled, case is preserved in command
       line arguments when the process is set up for extended DCL
       parsing using /PARSE_STYLE=EXTENDED.

    o  Some characters that were previously treated as token
       delimiters are no longer delimiters. The pound sign (#),
       circumflex (^), and question mark (?) fall into this category.

    o  A circumflex (^) is an escape character, which can be used to
       indicate that the next character in the command string is to
       be treated as if it were quoted, thereby losing its syntactic
       significance.

    EXTENDED parsing also modifies DCL's rules for parsing a
    parameter or qualifier that is defined as a file specification
    in a command's definition:

    o  File specifications will not be in uppercase.

    o  Any number of commas (,) may be placed between directory
       delimiters ([] and <>).

    o  Directory file ID's (DIDs) can be included in the file
       specification.

    o  Any number of periods (.) or semi-colons (;) may be included
       in the file specification.

    See the VSI OpenVMS System Manager's Manual, Volume 1: Essentials
    for more information.

2.12    /PERMANENT

    Performs the operation on the permanent affinity or capability
    mask as well as the current mask, making the changes valid for
    the life of the kernel thread. (The default behavior is to affect
    the current mask only for the running image.) The /PERMANENT
    qualifier is only valid in conjunction with the /CAPABILITY or
    the /AFFINITY qualifier.

2.13    /PRIORITY

       /PRIORITY=n

    Requires ALTPRI (alter priority) privilege to set the priority
    higher than the base priority of the specified process.

    Changes the priority for the specified kernel thread. If you do
    not have the ALTPRI privilege, the value you specify is compared
    to your current base priority, and the lower value is always
    used.

2.14    /PRIVILEGES

       /PRIVILEGES=(privilege[,...])

    Requires SETPRV (set privilege) privilege as an authorized
    privilege to enable any privilege you do not have in your
    authorized privilege mask.

    Enables the following process privileges:

    ACNT        ALLSPOOL     ALTPRI      AUDIT
    BUGCHK      BYPASS       CMEXEC      CMKRNL
    DETACH      DIAGNOSE     DOWNGRADE   EXQUOTA
    GROUP       GRPNAM       GRPPRV      IMPORT
    LOG_IO      MOUNT        NETMBX      OPER
    PFNMAP      PHY_IO       PRMCEB      PRMGBL
    PRMMBX      PSWAPM       READALL     SECURITY
    SETPRV      SHARE        SHMEM       SYSGBL
    SYSLCK      SYSNAM       SYSPRV      TMPMBX
    UPGRADE     VOLPRO       WORLD

    Use the SHOW PROCESS/PRIVILEGES command to determine what
    authorized privileges are enabled currently.

2.15    /RAD

       /RAD=HOME=n

    Changes the home resource affinity domain (RAD) of a process.

    This command only works on the current process.

    RAD is supported on AlphaServer GS series systems and starting
    from OpenVMS Version 8.4, support is extended to NUMA capable
    Integrity servers.

2.16    /RESOURCE_WAIT

       /RESOURCE_WAIT
       /NORESOURCE_WAIT

    Enables resource wait mode so that the process waits for
    resources to become available. If you specify the /NORESOURCE_
    WAIT qualifier, the process receives an error status code when
    system dynamic memory is not available or when the process
    exceeds one of the following resource quotas: direct I/O (DIOLM)
    limit, buffered I/O (BIOLM) limit, buffered I/O byte (BYTLM)
    count limit (buffer space), timer queue quota, mailbox buffer
    quota, or pipe quota.

                                 CAUTION

       Disabling resource waiting should be performed with caution,
       as doing so can have unexpected effects on constituent
       sharable images and runtime libraries. See the $SETRWM
       service in the VSI OpenVMS System Services Reference Manual
       for additional information.

2.17    /RESUME

    Allows a process suspended by a previous SET PROCESS/SUSPEND
    command to resume operation. The /RESUME qualifier is equivalent
    to the /NOSUSPEND qualifier.

2.18    /SCHEDULING_CLASS

       /SCHEDULING_CLASS="class_name"
       /NOSCHEDULING_CLASS

    Adds a process to, or removes a process from, a scheduling class.
    This command does not modify the permanent class scheduling
    database file. Therefore, the effect of this command can be
    viewed as temporary placement into, or removal from, a scheduling
    class.

2.19    /SET

       /SET=(n[,...])

    Sets all user capabilities or CPU affinities defined by the
    position values n specified by the /CAPABILITY or the /AFFINITY
    qualifier.

2.20    /SSLOG

       /SSLOG=(STATE={ON | OFF | UNLOAD} [,COUNT=n] [,FLAGS=[NO]ARG])

    Valid on Alpha and Integrity server systems only.

    Requires CMEXEC, CMKRNL, or SETPRV privilege to log argument
    values. The SYSGEN parameter SYSSER_LOGGING must be enabled or
    the command will fail.

    Enables or disables system service logging, using a log file
    (named SSLOG.DAT by default) to log data.

    Keywords are as follows:

    Keyword        Explanation

    COUNT=n        Specifies how many P2-space buffers to log.
                   (Default: 2)

    FLAGS=[NO]ARG  Specifies whether service argument values are to
                   be logged. (Default: ARG) ARG requires CMEXEC,
                   CMKRNL, or SETPRV privilege.

    STATE=state    Turns system service logging on or off. Possible
                   states are:
                   ON       Enables system service logging.
                   OFF      Disables (turns off) system service
                            logging; logging can still be reenabled.
                   UNLOAD   Stops logging and closes the log file,
                            which is named SSLOG.DAT by default.

    When enabling SSLOG for a process, you can specify the number of
    buffers to be used for logging. Buffers are allocated in P2 space
    and are charged against the process's paging file quota. Each
    buffer is 65,024(10) bytes or FE00(16) bytes. The buffer space
    remains allocated and the quota is charged until the process is
    deleted.

    Between the time when SSLOG is first enabled and when the log
    file is closed, logging can be stopped and resumed.

    Before you delete the process, you should stop all logging and
    close the log file. The log file does not close automatically.

    To analyze the log file, use the DCL command ANALYZE/SSLOG, which
    is described in online help and in the System Service Logging
    chapter of the VSI OpenVMS System Analysis Tools Manual.

2.21    /SUSPEND

       /SUSPEND[=SUPERVISOR]
       /SUSPEND=KERNEL
       /NOSUSPEND

    Requires privileges as described in text.

    Temporarily stops the process's activities. The process remains
    suspended until another process resumes or deletes it. Use the
    qualifiers /NOSUSPEND and /RESUME to resume a suspended process.

    Specify either of the following keywords with the /SUSPEND
    qualifier to produce different results:

    Keyword     Explanation

    SUPERVISOR  Specifies that the named process is to be suspended
    (default)   to allow the delivery of asynchronous system traps
                (ASTs) at EXEC or KERNEL mode. Specifying this
                keyword is optional.

    KERNEL      Specifies that the named process is to be suspended
                such that no ASTs can be delivered. To specify the
                KERNEL keyword, you must be in either KERNEL mode or
                EXEC mode, or have CMKRNL (change mode to kernel) and
                CMEXEC (change mode to executive) privilege enabled.
                Note that this was the default behavior of the SET
                PROCESS/SUSPEND command for versions of OpenVMS prior
                to VMS Version 5.0.

    Depending on the operation, the process from which you specify
    the /SUSPEND qualifier requires privileges. You must have GROUP
    privilege to suspend another process in the same group, unless
    that process has the same user identification code (UIC). You
    must have WORLD privilege to suspend any other process in the
    system.

    When you enter the SET PROCESS/SUSPEND=KERNEL/ID= command in a
    cluster environment, the KERNEL keyword is ignored if the target
    process and the current process reside on different cluster
    nodes. As a result, process suspension is handled as if you had
    specified the SUPERVISOR keyword (the default).

    Note that you can specify SET PROCESS/SUSPEND=KERNEL
    to override a previous SET PROCESS/SUSPEND=SUPERVISOR.
    SET PROCESS/SUSPEND=SUPERVISOR does not, however, override SET
    PROCESS/SUSPEND=KERNEL.

2.22    /SWAPPING

       /SWAPPING (default)
       /NOSWAPPING

    Requires the PSWAPM (process swap) privilege to disable swapping
    for your process.

    Permits the process to be swapped. By default, a process that is
    not currently executing can be removed from physical memory so
    that other processes can execute. If you specify the /NOSWAPPING
    qualifier, the process is not swapped out of the balance set when
    it is in a wait state.

2.23    /SYMLINK

       /SYMLINK=keyword

    Controls the behavior of all directory wildcard searches performed
    by the RMS $SEARCH service. DCL commands (such as COPY, SUBMIT,
    SET FILE, and so on) internally resolve directory wildcard
    arguments using the RMS $SEARCH service.

    Keyword options are:

    Keyword      Explanation

    NOWILDCARD   Indicates that symlinks are not followed during
                 directory wildcard searches.
    WILDCARD     Indicates that symlinks are followed, that is,
                 target files are included during wildcard
                 searches.
    NOELLIPSIS   Indicates that symlinks are followed, that is,
                 target files are included for all wildcard
                 fields except for ellipsis.
    ELLIPSIS     Equivalent to WILDCARD (included for command
                 symmetry).

2.24    /TOKEN

       /TOKEN=keyword

    Changes the maximum size of tokens (elements) in a DCL command.
    (A token is any element in a command line that is bounded by
    spaces. For example, the command COPY X.TXT Y.TXT contains three
    tokens.) The token size is determined by the setting of bit 1 in
    the DCL_CTLFLAGS system parameter. By default, the bit is clear,
    indicating that traditional tokens (255 bytes) are being used.
    If the bit is set, extended tokens (4000 bytes) are used. The
    corresponding keywords for /TOKEN are TRADITIONAL and EXTENDED.
    You can use SHOW PROCESS/TOKEN to determine the current token
    size setting.

2.25    /UNITS

       /UNITS[=keyword]

    Specifies whether the amount of disk space reported by certain
    utilities is to be displayed in blocks or bytes. Keyword options
    are:

    Keyword      Explanation

    BLOCKS       Displays disk space in blocks.
    BYTES        Displays disk space in bytes.

    Blocks is the default until /UNITS is set to BYTES. If you
    specify /UNITS with no keyword, disk space is reported in blocks.

    Displays that are affected by changing the value of /UNITS
    include output from certain forms of the following commands:
    COPY, DELETE, DIRECTORY, PURGE, SHOW DEVICE, SHOW MEMORY, and
    SHOW QUOTA. Note that input to these commands can be specified
    only in blocks. The DIRECTORY, SHOW DEVICES, and SHOW MEMORY
    commands have a qualifier that lets you override the default SET
    PROCESS/UNITS setting for a single command.

3  –  Examples

    1.$ SET PROCESS/PRIVILEGE=EXQUOTA

      The SET PROCESS command in this example assigns the current
      process the privilege of exceeding quotas.

    2.$ SET PROCESS/NORESOURCE_WAIT

      The SET PROCESS command in this example disables resource wait
      mode for the current process.

    3.$ RUN/PROCESS_NAME=TESTER  CALC
      %RUN-S-PROC_ID, identification of created process is 0005002F
      $ SET PROCESS/PRIORITY=10  TESTER

      The RUN command in this example creates a subprocess and gives
      it the name TESTER. Subsequently, the SET PROCESS/PRIORITY
      command assigns the subprocess a priority of 10.

    4.$ SHOW PROCESS/SUBPROCESS

      19-APR-2001 15:17:28.41  User: DAVIS Process ID:   31900218
                               Node: OCALA  Process name: "DAVIS"

      Processes in this tree:

      DAVIS *
        DAVIS_1
        DAVIS_2

      $ SET PROCESS/SUSPEND DAVIS_1
      $

      The SET PROCESS/SUSPEND command in this example suspends the
      process DAVIS_1 such that ASTs can be delivered to it. Because
      no keyword was specified, the /SUSPEND=SUPERVISOR version is
      assumed.

    5.$ SHOW PROCESS/SUBPROCESS OCALA::TESTA

      19-APR-2001 12:17:24.45   User: TESTA    Process ID:   31400208

       $

      In this example, CPU 1 has user capability 8 enabled (user mask
      of process CPUSCHED, and CPU affinity is set to 1. Either of
      these settings forces the initial kernel thread to run only on
      CPU 1, as shown by the SHOW PROCESS command.

      Then, the SET PROCESS/NOAFFINITY/NOCAPABILITY command clears
      all CPU affinities and user capability requirements for the
      initial kernel thread of process (CPUSCHED), and the binding to
      CPU 1 disappears.

    7.$ SET PROCESS/SSLOG=(STATE=ON,COUNT=4)

      This command turns on system service logging with four P2 space
      buffers, each having a size of FE00(16) bytes. If the process
      has SETPRV, CMKRNL, or CMEXEC privilege, argument values are
      logged.

    8.$ SET PROCESS/SSLOG=(STATE=UNLOAD)

      This command stops logging and closes the log file.
