pid-file

This stanza entry specifies the location and name of the PID file.

Syntax

pid-file = fully_qualified_path

Location and name of the PID file.

fully_qualified_path: Represents an alphanumeric string. String values are expected to be characters that are part of the local code set. The set of valid characters in a file name can be determined by the file system and by the local code set. For Windows operating systems, file names cannot have a backward slash (\), a colon (:), a question mark (?), or double quotation marks ("). Windows operating systems path names, however, can have a backward slash (\) or a colon (:).
For AIX, Linux, and Solaris operating systems, path names and file names are case-sensitive.
