Deleting the SMF Master Process
The DELETE MON Command (page 14-101) removes the SMF master process from
the system configuration database.
Considerations for DELETE MON
•
The DELETE MON command stops the MON process, deletes the reserved name
from the destination control table, and removes configuration information from the
system configuration database.
•
If you delete the MON process, the catalog files remain on the magnetic disk.
Remove these catalog files by using the SMFIXUP utility.
Example
1. Before removing an SMF master process from the system configuration database,
verify that:
•
The MON process is stopped.
•
TMF is running.
•
The CATALOGLOCATION volume for the SMF master process is started and
enabled by TMF.
2. Stop the SMF master process:
-> STOP $ZSMS
The SMF master process finishes any current activity before entering the
STOPPED state.
3. Delete the SMF master process:
-> DELETE MON $ZSMS
4. Verify the deletion:
-> INFO $ZSMS
Caution. Using wild-card characters can affect the MON objects of other subsystems (QIO, for
example).
