Using the command line interface
   Here are some examples for changing various parameters using the command line:

To disable messages to the operator's console, type:

$ HITMAN/NOCONSOLE

HITMAN message will not be sent to the operator's console.

To protect user FRED, type:

$ HITMAN/PROTECT/USER=FRED

FRED will not be killed, no matter how long he is idle, or what images he runs.


To authorize user MOE to have privileges.

$ HITMAN/AUTHORIZE/USER=MOE

User MOE is authorized to have privileges in the ALL category.


 To protect the image EDT, type:

$ HITMAN/PROTECT/IMAGE=EDT

Any process running EDT will not be warned or killed.

 To hit any user who runs the image OTHELLO, type:

$ HITMAN/AUTOHIT/IMAGE=OTHELLO

NOTE:  When you change a parameter, HITMAN tells the detached process to read the parameter file.  If the detached process does not exist at this point, you will get the "HITMAN is not running" message:

%HITMAN_I_NOTRUN, HITMAN is not running

This message is informational.  It does not represent an error and can be ignored.
