/PROCESS=process-name

Speciﬁes the name of the subprocess to be created. The default name of the

subprocess is username_n, where username is the user name of the parent

process.

Example

SDA> SPAWN

$ MAIL

$ DIR

$ LO

Process SYSTEM_1 logged out at 5-MAR-1993 15:42:23.59

SDA>

This example uses the SPAWN command to create a subprocess that issues DCL

commands to invoke the Mail utility. The subprocess then lists the contents of a

directory before logging out to return to the parent process executing SDA.
