STARTUP.COM is the site-independent startup command procedure supplied with OpenVMS. It uses a series of command procedures, executable images, and database files to perform the following startup tasks:

  • Define systemwide logical names required for the symbolic debugger, language processors, linker, image activator, and help processor.
  • Start processes that control error logging, SMISERVER (the system management server), the job controller, the operator log file, and security uditing.
  • Connect devices that are physically attached to the system by invoking the SYCONFIG.COM procedure.
  • Configure devices and load their I/O drivers.
  • Install known images to reduce I/O overhead in activating the most commonly run images or to identify images that must have special privileges.

Site-specific startup command procedures

STARTUP.COM executes the following site-specific startup command procedures in this order:

  1. SYS$MANAGER:SYCONFIG.COM
  2. SYS$MANAGER:SYLOGICALS.COM
  3. SYS$MANAGER:SYPAGSWPFILES.COM
  4. SYS$MANAGER:SYSECURITY.COM
  5. SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM
