Stopping the DMD

Stop the DMD in one of the following ways:

• From MVS™, stop the DMD by issuing the following command:

  STOP procname

  where procname is one of the following values:

  • If the DMD was started from a cataloged procedure, the procname value is the member name of that procedure.
  • If the DMD was started from the z/OS® UNIX shell and the environment variable _BPX_JOBNAME was set, the procname value is the same as the _BPX_JOBNAME value.
  • If the DMD was started from the z/OS UNIX shell and _BPX_JOBNAME was not set, the procname value is useridX, where X is the sequence number that is set by the system. To determine the sequence number, from the ISPF LOG window on TSO, issue the following command:

    /d omvs,u=userid

    This command displays the programs that are running under the specified user ID. For more information about _BPX_JOBNAME, see z/OS UNIX System Services Planning.
• From the z/OS shell, issue the kill command from a superuser ID for the process ID (PID) that is associated with the DMD. By default, the DMD PID is recorded in /var/dm/dmd.pid. You can change the default location using the DMD_PIDFILE environment variable.
