Stopping the scheduler

To stop IBM Z Workload Scheduler, enter the following z/OS® operator command:

/P procname

where procname is the IBM Z Workload Scheduler JCL procedure name

If you are stopping a controller, the controller creates a backup copy of the current plan data set (if required) and ends all active functions.

When IBM Z Workload Scheduler ends, it writes this message to the message log:

EQQZ006I NO ACTIVE PRODUCT SUBTASKS. THE SCHEDULER IS ENDING.
