endcmd.close.leeway

Purpose

The endcmd.close.leeway statement specifies how long commands specified using the ENDCMD parameter on the PIPE KEEP stage can run after a CLOSE IMMED, CLOSE STOP, or an MVS™ STOP (P) command is entered for the NetView® program. The total for all commands cannot exceed the specified leeway value. This statement applies only to the global keeps.

Specifies the number of seconds. The initial value is 2 seconds.

Usage notes

  • The leeway value does not apply to CLOSE ABEND command processing or when an MVS CANCEL command is used to end the NetView program.
  • Choosing a large leeway number can be disruptive. Because of this, specify the smallest number of seconds such that anticipated commands can complete processing.
