- User ID and Others, Using Switches

An alternative format for the command line requires a switch for each command line option.

The Unix syntax (case sensitive) is:

-u <operatorID> <co-div> -f <ini file name> -q <queue ID> -s <session id> -p <port number> -x <xferin> -c <config file name>

The PC style syntax (case insensitive) is:

/user:<operatorID> <co-div> /ini:<ini file name> /que:<queueID> /session:<session id> /port:<port number> /xferin:<xferin> /c:<config file name>

where:

-u <operatorID> <co-div>

is the PROIV user id and company division used for transparent logon.

-f <ini file name>

is the initialisation file. If this is not supplied, the default file will be used.

-q <queue ID>

of the batch processing queue (1-9, A-Z, a-z).

-s <session id>

is the identifier for the kernel used by the Kernel Manager. (See Note below).

-p <port number>

is the port for the kernel to communicate with the Kernel Manager. (See Note below.)

-x <xferin>

is a set of strings with space delimiters, which will be put into PROIV’s xferin buffer to be accessed via the logic command XFERIN. All strings following -x will be assumed to belong to xferin. The xferin option must be the last one on the line. This allows parameters that may appear to be PROIV command line switches to be passed in as xferin parameters. The xferin option may be used without transparent logon. All other options are independent and can be included in any order.

-c <config file name>

is the config file name. For example, if the config file is base-default.properties, then the command is "-c base-default".

-v

This syntax displays PROIV Virtual Machine version information and for Unix, PROISAM version and the shared memory key.

The two command line switches, -s and –p, are available only to the Kernel Manager and are not supported for any other use. If unknown switches are used, a default usage message will be displayed and the kernel will exit.
