HP OpenVMS Systemsask the wizard |
The Question is: Can you tell me what is achieved by executing the command "run SYS$SYSTEM:LOGINOUT.EXE /detached /input=asdf.com" Thanks The Answer is : The OpenVMS Wizard will assume this is not an existential question. (You can achieve many things with the cited DCL command, of course.) As for the functional definition of the command, please review the sections discussing LOGINOUT.EXE within the OpenVMS FAQ for this and for related details. Put simply, this command creates a detached process running with a command line interpreter (usually DCL) loaded, and particularly a detached process reading commands from ASDF.COM. In many ways, this process is similar to a batch job. But not under the control of the queue manager, obviously. Again, please review the OpenVMS FAQ for related discussions. Detailed jobs do not, by default, usually have a command interpreter loaded, and (again) please see the OpenVMS FAQ for its related discussion of the SS$_NOCLI error and of detached-process operations. Also, from the available HELP documentation: $ HELP RUN Process . . . Creates a subprocess or a detached process to run an image and deletes the process when the image completes execution. A subprocess is created if any of the qualifiers except the /UIC or the /DETACHED qualifier is specified. A detached process is created if the /UIC or the /DETACHED qualifier is specified and you have the IMPERSONATE user privilege.
