STOP PATHWAY
STATUS
specifies whether status information is to be displayed during a shutdown.
If you omit this attribute, the default is QUIET.
QU or QUIET
directs PXMCOM not to display any messages until the stop request completes.
After the stop request is completed, PXMCOM displays the results of the
shutdown.
AG or AGGREGATE
directs PXMCOM to display the Pathway environment status every 20 seconds
while shutdown is executing. Regular status display enables the operator to
monitor the shutdown process. Status continues to be displayed until shutdown
completes.
UNTIL
specifies the time interval in which the shutdown process is to complete. If you omit
this attribute, the default is DONE.
DONE
suspends PXMCOM operation until the stop request completes.
TIMEOUT
returns control to the PXMCOM process in the specified time.
The time is specified by a number followed by HRS, MINS, or SECS. If
shutdown completes before the timeout occurs, the PXMCOM prompt is
returned. If the timeout occurs and the stop request has not completed, the
PXMCOM prompt returns without affecting the execution of the shutdown
process.
Escalating the Stop Request
Use the UNTIL with a TIMEOUT attribute to allow you to issue a more forceful stop
option after the timeout period.
