Stops an active PowerExchange Logger for z/OS. Use either the PowerExchange STOP command that is issued with the MVS MODIFY (F) command, or use the standard MVS STOP (P) command.
Before you issue a STOP command, verify that all ECCR and log reader connections to the PowerExchange Logger have ended. The PowerExchange Logger cannot stop until all attached reader and writer connections complete or are canceled. If you issue the STOP command when reader or writer connections are still active, the PowerExchange Logger waits until the connections end before stopping.
Syntax
To issue the PowerExchange STOP command, use the following syntax:
F
proc_name
,STOP
To issue the MVS STOP (P) command, use the following syntax:
P
proc_name
The
proc_name
variable is the PowerExchange Logger procedure name.
Usage Notes
Review the following notes before issuing the command:
If you issue the PowerExchange STOP command when the PowerExchange Logger still has active ECCR or log reader connections, the PowerExchange Logger waits until the connections end before stopping. Also, PowerExchange issues the following the message for each outstanding ECCR or log reader task:
PWXEDM172596E Logger waiting for {reader|ECCR} Client (
job_name
)to end
After the PowerExchange STOP command completes, the PowerExchange Logger accepts no additional commands.
Instead of the PowerExchange STOP command, you can use the MVS STOP (P) command. Before running the MVS STOP command, verify that no outstanding ECCR or log reader tasks are attached to the PowerExchange Logger.
If you cannot terminate all outstanding ECCR and log reader tasks, you can use the MVS CANCEL command to terminate the PowerExchange Logger.
