Syntax

%STRTSRV(server-name, <options>, <uapw>, <oapw>);

Syntax Description

server-name: specifies the server name. The name can be an alias or an actual server ID.
options: specifies any PROC SERVER statement options. Use blank spaces to separate options. For information about the PROC SERVER options, see The SERVER Procedure.
uapw: specifies the user-access password.
oapw: specifies the operator-access password to be mapped to the UAPW= and OAPW= options, respectively, in the PROC SERVER statement.

Details

The STRTSRV macro invokes the SERVER procedure. %STRTSRV generates a LIBNAME statement for each library in the current library table for the server that is being started (either directly or through an alias) for which either the SLIBREF= or the PHYSNAME= parameters in %SERVLIB have been specified. For information about %SERVLIB, see SERVLIB Macro. Using %STRTSRV to define a library to the server at start-up automates the change to server start-up when the library is moved to another server.

The STRTSRV macro also generates a LIBNAME statement for each library that is listed in the current library-alias table for the server that is being started.
