Arguments

 

pidadr

   OpenVMS usage:process_id
   type:         longword (unsigned)
   access:       modify
   mechanism:    by reference
   Process identification (PID) of the process for which wakeups are
   to be canceled. The pidadr argument is the address of a longword
   specifying the PID. The pidadr argument can refer to a process
   running on the local node or a process running on another node in
   the OpenVMS Cluster system.
 

prcnam

   OpenVMS usage:process_name
   type:         character-coded text string
   access:       read only
   mechanism:    by descriptor-fixed-length string descriptor
   Name of the process for which wakeups are to be canceled. The
   prcnam argument is the address of a character string descriptor
   pointing to the process name string.

   A process running on the local node can be identified with a 1-
   to 15-character string. To identify a process on a specific node
   in 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.

   The operating system interprets the UIC group number of the
   calling process as part of the process name; the names of
   processes are unique to UIC groups. Because of this, you can
   use the prcnam argument only on behalf of processes in the same
   group as the calling process.
