Menu menuPini

This menu defines the choices for the PINI field, which controls whether and when each record should be processed during initialization or pausing of the IOC. Choices other than NO cause record processing at the following initHook transitions:

• YES

  initHookAfterScanInit — All records and links have been initialized but the scan threads and CA server are not running yet, nor have CA links been connected up. The initHook initHookAfterInitialProcess immediately follows this procssing.

• RUN

  initHookAtIocRun — The iocRun() routine has just been called, although not necessarily for the first time.

• RUNNING

  initHookAfterIocRunning — All remaining initializations have taken place, interruptAccept is enabled, the scan threads and CA server are running and the IOC is processing records. CA links might not have finished connecting though, and sequence programs won’t usually have been started yet.

• PAUSE

  initHookAtIocPause — The iocPause() routine has just been called and the IOC is about to suspend operations.

• PAUSED

  initHookAfterIocPaused — The CA server, CA link operations and the scan threads have been paused and interruptAccept disabled.

Note that the order in which records that have the same PINI value get processed can be controlled by setting their PHAS field, which is honored for PINI processing as well as for regular scanning.
