ABORT Command
ABORT Command
The ABORT command terminates the operation of an object as quickly as possible;
only enough processing is done to ensure the security of the subsystem. The object is
left in the STOPPED state.
This is a sensitive command.
OUT file-spec
causes any SCF output generated for this command to be directed to the specified
file. The variable file-spec is defined on page 5-9.
object-spec
designates the objects to be aborted. The variable object-spec is defined on
page 5-2. If you omit object-spec, the assumed object is aborted. (See
ASSUME Command on page 5-36.) The objects that can be aborted depend on
the subsystem.
FORCED
specifies that the specified object is aborted even if there are files open on
object-spec.
SUB [ subobjtype ]
selects the subordinate objects the command affects. The variable subobjtype
can be a subordinate object type or one of the keywords ONLY, ALL, or NONE, as
explained under SCF Subdevices on page 3-5.
SEL [ NOT ] state
directs the command only at objects in the specified state or only at those not in
the specified state. Valid states are listed in Table 3-1 on page 3-7. The use of this
option is subsystem-specific.
Considerations
•
The ABORT command causes all activities being performed by the object to be
halted abruptly. Any subsequent output may be unpredictable.
•
For a more controlled termination of an object, use the STOP command (described
on page 5-115), if supported by your subsystem or object type.
•
To subsequently remove the object from the configuration, use the DELETE
command (described on page 5-51).
