Format

SET SERVER REGISTRY_SERVER

Description

The SET SERVER REGISTRY_SERVER command provides a system manager with the ability to start, stop, and restart the Registry server. The Registry server maintains information stored in the Registry database.

The Registry database is used by COM, Advanced Server for OpenVMS, and other applications.

For more information about the Registry database and the $REGISTRY system service, see the HP OpenVMS System Services Reference Manual. See also the SHOW SERVER command.

/ABORT

/CLUSTER

Issues the SET command to each Registry server in the cluster, setting the Registry master server last.

Cannot be used with the /MASTER or /NODE qualifiers.

/EXIT

/MASTER

Requires SYSLCK privilege.

Issues the command to the Registry master server only.

/NODE=(node-name[,...])

Issues the SET command to the Registry servers on the specified nodes in the order they are entered. The node names must be within the current cluster.

Cannot be used with the /CLUSTER or /MASTER qualifiers.

To change the default privileges:

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

/UIC=uic

To change the default quotas:

/AST_LIMIT=n /BUFFER_LIMIT=n /ENQUEUE_LIMIT=n /EXTENT=n /FILE_LIMIT=n /IO_BUFFERED=n /IO_DIRECT=n /JOB_TABLE_QUOTA=n /MAXIMUM_WORKING_SET=n /PAGE_FILE=n /QUEUE_LIMIT=n /SUBPROCESS_LIMIT=n /WORKING_SET=n

You can use the following alternate syntax to specify a list of quotas and their values:

/QUOTAS=(quota=n[,...])
