/SUSPEND[=SUPERVISOR]
/SUSPEND=KERNEL
/NOSUSPEND
Requires privileges as described in text.
Temporarily stops the process's activities. The process remains
suspended until another process resumes or deletes it. Use the
qualifiers /NOSUSPEND and /RESUME to resume a suspended process.
Specify either of the following keywords with the /SUSPEND
qualifier to produce different results:
Keyword Explanation
SUPERVISOR Specifies that the named process is to be suspended
(default) to allow the delivery of asynchronous system traps
(ASTs) at EXEC or KERNEL mode. Specifying this
keyword is optional.
KERNEL Specifies that the named process is to be suspended
such that no ASTs can be delivered. To specify the
KERNEL keyword, you must be in either KERNEL mode or
EXEC mode, or have CMKRNL (change mode to kernel) and
CMEXEC (change mode to executive) privilege enabled.
Note that this was the default behavior of the SET
PROCESS/SUSPEND command for versions of OpenVMS prior
to VMS Version 5.0.
Depending on the operation, the process from which you specify
the /SUSPEND qualifier requires privileges. You must have GROUP
privilege to suspend another process in the same group, unless
that process has the same user identification code (UIC). You
must have WORLD privilege to suspend any other process in the
system.
When you enter the SET PROCESS/SUSPEND=KERNEL/ID= command in a
cluster environment, the KERNEL keyword is ignored if the target
process and the current process reside on different cluster
nodes. As a result, process suspension is handled as if you had
specified the SUPERVISOR keyword (the default).
Note that you can specify SET PROCESS/SUSPEND=KERNEL
to override a previous SET PROCESS/SUSPEND=SUPERVISOR.
SET PROCESS/SUSPEND=SUPERVISOR does not, however, override SET
PROCESS/SUSPEND=KERNEL.
