 Qualifiers 

	/[NO]CHECKPOINT

	/EXTENSION:n
	/PARTITION:parname

 The RUN command can be used to initiate the execution of either an
 installed task or an uninstalled task from a task image file.  Most RUN
 commands are of this variety.  The RUN command in this case is a combination 
 INSTALL-RUN-REMOVE command.  The $ requests that the task be run from a file
 in the System Directory (or Library Directory on RSX-11M-PLUS). 

 Abbreviation: R

 See HELP RUN INSTALLED_TASK for information on the other flavor of the RUN
 command.
2 NOCHECKPOINT
#CHECKPOINT
2 CHECKPOINT

  RUN/[NO]CHECKPOINT filespec

 The /CHECKPOINT qualifier specifies whether or not the task is to be
 checkpointable as it runs. The default is set at link-time. This quali-
 fier overrides the link-time specification.
2 COMMAND

 RUN/COMMAND:"task_command" taskname

 The /COMMAND qualifier makes it possible for you to pass a command to a 
 task at the same time as you run it.  For example, 

 >RUN/COMMAND:"/LI" $PIP

2 EXTENSION

 RUN/EXTENSION:n filespec

 The /EXTENSION qualifier specifies that 'n' additional words of address
 space are to be allocated to a task.
2 PARTITION

 RUN/PARTITION:parname filespec

 The /PARTITION qualifier specifies into what partition the task is to
 run. The default is set at link-time. This qualifier overrides the link
 time specification.
2 DUMP
#POSTMORTEM
2 POSTMORTEM
 RUN/POSTMORTEM taskname

 The /POSTMORTEM qualifier specifies that you wish a postmortem dump in the
 case of an abnormal exit of the task.  See HELP PMD.
2 PRIORITY

 RUN/PRIORITY:n filespec

 The /PRIORITY qualifier specifies at what priority the task is to run.
 The default is set at link-time. This qualifier overrides the link-time
 specification.
2 STATUS

 RUN/STATUS:COMMAND taskname
 RUN/STATUS:TASK taskname

 The /STATUS:TASK qualifier specifies that you wish exit status from the
 task being run and not from the RUN command.  The default is
 /STATUS:COMMAND and need not be specified.  The /STATUS:TASK qualifier 
 may be necessary in user batch jobs that run tasks where the
 batch processor must wait for the task to exit before attempt-
 ing to execute the next command.  For instance, if the user batch job
 includes a command to run an task that writes a file followed
 by a command to print that file, the /STATUS:TASK qualifier to RUN 
 prevents the PRINT command from being issued before the task 
 has finished writing the file.

2 TASK

 RUN/TASK_NAME:name filespec

 The /TASK_NAME qualifier specifies the name by which the task is to be
 refered. The default is set at link-time. This qualifier overrides the
 link-time specification.
2 TIME_LIMIT
 RUN/TIME_LIMIT:arg

 The /TIME_LIMIT qualifier permits you to set a time limit on the task's
 execution time on RSX-11M-PLUS systems.  Specify either m and a number for
 minutes or s and a number for seconds of CPU time.  The default is m.
2 UIC

 RUN/UIC:[uic] filespec

 The /UIC qualifier specifies the default UIC for the task. This task
 UIC determines into what file-protection class it belongs, and thus
 durectly influences file access.

 The square brackets are required syntax.
2 DELAY

 RUN/DELAY:nu taskname

 The /DELAY qualifier specifies that the specified task be run after
 the specified amount of time passes. The argument 'nu' specifies the
 amount of the delay as a number of units. 'n' is the number of units
 and 'u' is one of the time unit qualifiers as follows:

	TICKS
	SECONDS
	MINUTES
	HOURS

For example, to delay execution for 5 seconds after issuing the command,
 /DELAY:5S should be specified.
2 INTERVAL

 RUN/INTERVAL:nu taskname

 The /INTERVAL qualifier specifies that the specified task is to be run
 at a regular interval. The argument 'nu' specifies the interval as a
 number of units of time. 'n' is the number of units. 'u' is one of the
 time units qualifiers as follows:

	TICKS
	SECONDS
	MINUTES
	HOURS

 For example, to run a task every 5 seconds, /INTERVAL:5S should be 
 specified.
2 SCHEDULE

 RUN/SCHEDULE:hh:mm:ss taskname

 The /SCHEDULE qualifier specifies that the specified task be run at a
 particular time of day.
2 STATUS

 RUN/STATUS:COMMAND taskname
 RUN/STATUS:TASK taskname

 The /STATUS:TASK qualifier specifies that you wish exit status from the
 installed task being run and not from the RUN command.  The default is
 /STATUS:COMMAND and need not be specified.  The /STATUS:TASK qualifier 
 may be necessary in user batch jobs that run installed tasks where the
 batch processor must wait for the installed task to exit before attempt-
 ing to execute the next command.  For instance, if the user batch job
 includes a command to run an installed task that writes a file followed
 by a command to print that file, the /STATUS:TASK qualifier to RUN 
 prevents the PRINT command from being issued before the installed task 
 has finished writing the file.

 This is not a privileged qualifier.
2 SYNCHRONIZE

 RUN/SYNCHRONIZE:u taskname

 The /SYNCHRONIZE qualifier specifies that the execution of the speci-
 fied task be synchronized on a particular clock unit. 'u' is one of the
 time unit qualifiers as follows:

	TICKS
	SECONDS
	MINUTES
	HOURS

 For example, if you wanted to run a task 'A' every hour on the hour,
 you would enter the following command:

	 RUN/SYNCHRONIZE:H/INTERVAL:1H A

 This command says to synchronize on the hour and then run at intervals
 of 1 hour.
2 INSTALLED_TASK
 RUN[/qualifier] installed_task

 	Qualifiers

	/DELAY:nu
	/INTERVAL:nu	
	/SCHEDULE:hh:mm:ss
	/STATUS:arg
		COMMAND
		TASK
	/SYNCHRONIZE:u
	/UIC:[g,m]

 This flavor of the RUN command initiates the exection of an installed tasks.
 Nonprivileged users can run installed tasks and can specify the /STATUS 
 qualifier, but all other qualifiers are privileged.

 You cannot use RUN with tasks with names in the form ...xxx.  To run these
 tasks, use a command in the form

	>MCR xxx

 See HELP RUN qualifier for more information.
