RUNON(1)							      RUNON(1)

NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     runon - run a command on a	particular cpu

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     runon n command [ arguments ]

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     runon executes command, assigning it to run only on cpu n,	where n	varies
     between 0 and the number of processors on the system minus	one.  (For
     single-processor systems, then, there is only cpu 0.)

     This cpu affinity is inherited across fork() and exec() system calls.  A
     sysmp(2) call can change the cpu affinity.	 Note that command may still
     run on other processors, briefly, to perform i/o or other hardwarespecific
 actions.

     runon can not run a command on a cpu that is part of a cpuset unless the
     user has permission to access the cpuset.

SEE ALSO    [Toc]    [Back]

     mpadmin(1), sysmp(2), miser_cpuset(1).

WARNINGS    [Toc]    [Back]

     In	the case of the	following command

	  runon	1 command1; command2

     runon applies only	to command1.  The command

	  runon	2 (command1; command2)

     is	syntactically incorrect.
