Command Propagation Files

The are two distinct types of files that are associated with the Command Propagation Facility (CPF).

Important! These files must be dedicated to a single CPU.

CPF Recovery File

There is one Receive journal to record commands and their response from other nodes. There can be a Send journal for each connected node to record commands and responses.
