Arguments

 

pidadr

   OpenVMS usage:process_id
   type:         longword (unsigned)
   access:       modify
   mechanism:    by 32- or 64-bit reference
   Process identification (PID) of the process to be activated. The
   pidadr argument is the 32- or 64-bit address of a longword that
   contains 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.
 

prcnam

   OpenVMS usage:process_name
   type:         character-coded text string
   access:       read only
   mechanism:    by 32- or 64-bit descriptor-fixed-length string
                 descriptor
   Process name of the process to be activated. The prcnam argument
   is the 32- or 64-bit address of a 32- or 64-bit 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 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 process name is implicitly qualified by the UIC group number
   of the calling process. For this reason, you can use the prcnam
   argument only if the process to be activated is in the same UIC
   group as the calling process. To activate a process in another
   UIC group, you must specify the pidadr argument.
