CAUTION: Normal operating system checks and limitations are bypassed in privileged mode (PM). It is possible for a PM program to destroy file integrity, including the operating system software itself. Hewlett-Packard will investigate and attempt to resolve problems resulting from the use of PM code. This service, which is not provided under the standard service contract, is available on a time and materials billing basis. Hewlett-Packard will not support, correct, or attend to any modification of the operating system software. |

Condition Codes
- CCE (2)

Operation Notes
After a successful call to GETPRIVMODE, the program remains in privileged mode until a call to GETUSERMODE or the program exits the current procedure. (A procedure refers to a Pascal procedure or function, a C function, a Fortran subprogram, an SPL procedure, or a COBOL program). Any procedures called while in privileged mode will execute in privileged mode. When the procedure that called GETPRIVMODE exits, the previous privilege level is restored.
