STOP Command

STOP is a sensitive command that halts the operation of an object in an orderly

manner.

STOP ADAPTER Command

The STOP ADAPTER command stops the operation of the specified ADAPTER object

in an orderly manner and places it in the STOPPED state.

Command Syntax

OUT file-spec

causes any SCF output generated for this command to be directed to the specified

file.

ADAPTER adapter-name

is the name of the Ethernet adapter to be put in the STOPPED state. The adapter

name has the form $ZZLAN.adapter-name, for example, $ZZLAN.G1123.

SUB [ ONLY | ALL | NONE ]

directs the command at a set of subordinate objects.

ONLY specifies that only the subordinate objects are affected.

ALL specifies that the named object and the subordinate objects are affected.

NONE specifies that none of the subordinate objects are affected.

Considerations



Stopping an adapter does not work when one or more subordinate SAC, LIF, or

PIF objects are in the STARTING or STARTED state. You must put them in the

STOPPED state before issuing the STOP ADAPTER command, or use the SUB

ALL option.



If a subordinate SAC is in the DIAGNOSE state, you cannot stop the adapter.



Omitting the SUB option has the same affect as SUB NONE.



Including the SUB option without specifying ALL, NONE, or ONLY has the same

affect as SUB ALL.
