optional; duplicate occurrences are not allowed.
ZSPI-TKN-RESPONSE-TYPE, ZSPI-TKN-ALLOW-TYPE, and ZSPI-TKN-
COMMENT
are described in the Distributed Systems Management (DSM) Programming Manual.
These tokens are optional and, with the exception of ZSPI-TKN-COMMENT,
duplicate occurrences are not allowed.
Tokens in Response Buffer
ZSPI-TKN-DATALIST and the final ZSPI-TKN-ENDLIST
enclose a data list, as described in the Distributed Systems Management (DSM)
Programming Manual. These tokens enclose the other response tokens only if the
value of the header token ZSPI-TKN-MAXRESP is nonzero. No more than one
data list can appear in the response.
ZCOM-TKN-OBJTYPE
specifies the type of object named in ZCOM-TKN-OBJNAME. The token value is
ZCOM-OBJ-PROCESS.
ZCOM-TKN-OBJNAME
is the name of the process that was to be aborted.
ZSPI-TKN-RETCODE
indicates whether or not the command was successful. If the command failed, this
token supplies the reason for the failure. Its use is described further in the
Distributed Systems Management (DSM) Programming Manual.
ZSPI-TKN-ERRLIST and ZSPI-TKN-ENDLIST
enclose a standard SPI error list, as described in the Distributed Systems
Management (DSM) Programming Manual.
Operational Notes
Executing this command on a process aborts all pending requests for all
subdevices contained by that process, and causes the process to cease to exist.
When an ABORT PROCESS command is issued, the process and any opened
subdevices cease to exist.
You should issue an ABORT command for all subdevices of a process, followed by
a small delay, before issuing the ABORT PROCESS command.
