DECnet nodenames may be prefixed to the targets of a PEEK, SPY or
WATCH command. Peek/Spy will attempt to watch the target on the
specified DECnet node.
A nodename may be prefixed to a process name parameter. For example:
$ PEEK BOSTON::J_DOE. ! Watch process J_DOE on node BOSTON.
Nodenames may also be prefixed to process-id or terminal- or user-
name target specifications. Examples:
$ PEEK/IDENTIFIER=NODEA::124 ! Watch PID 124 on NODEA.
$ SPY/TERMINAL=NODEA::LTA* ! Watch all LTA terminals on NODEA.
$ PEEK/USERNAME=NODEA::D* ! Watch all users named D* on NODEA.
Peek/Spy must be running on the target node, and the PEEK and SPY
objects/applications must be defined for DECnet on the target
nodes. See the top-level PEEK Subtopic: Node_Names Set-up.
Standard VMS % and * wildcards can be used in nodenames providing
PEEK has been configured to use wildcards in nodenames. See the
top-level PEEK Subtopic: Node_Names Wildcards.
Different nodenames can be prepended to each target specification
in a list. A prepended nodename applies only to the one target
specification in a list to which it is prepended. For example:
$ PEEK BOSTON::J_DOE,PHOENIX::B_SMITH,M_JONES
The above command causes PEEK to attempt to watch the process
J_DOE on node BOSTON, then the process B_SMITH on node PHOENIX,
and then the process M_JONES on the current node.
