Stopping the PSM Control Program

To stop the PSM Control Program normally, first logon to the PSM virtual machine. Because the PSM virtual machine runs disconnected, the first action is to issue a BEGIN command to resume operation.

	LOGON PSM         
	 ICH70001I PSM  LAST ACCESS AT 17:08:54 ON MONDAY, OCTOBER 20, 2003 
	z/VM Version 4 Release 3.0, Service Level 0202 (64-bit), 
	built on IBM Virtualization Technology

	 begin 

Then enter the STOPALL request. The PSM control program should then close its threads.

After a short period of time (about ten seconds) the CMS prompt should be given:

	stopall                                                     
	 ISQCN0402I Command <stopall> entered    
	HCPMFS057I PSM not receiving; not authorized  
	ISQCS0218I Request <stopall> done.          
	 ISQCN0708I Console Server thread canceled   
	 ISQCN0709I Console Server thread ending...    
	 ISQCS0708I Command Server thread canceled  
	 ISQLG0708I Logger thread canceled          
	 ISQCS0709I Command Server thread ending...   
	 ISQLG0709I Logger thread ending...  
	ISQMA0005I Main Thread ending (others may still be running)
	Ready; T=0.09/0.10 20:30:59           

Sometimes it is not possible to use STOPALL to stop the PSM. In these cases, enter the HX command (halt execution) followed by B (BEGIN), repeatedly until the Ready prompt is obtained:

	hx               
	CMS          
	b           
	DMSRXS1419E EventSignal failed for event CONNSOCK; RC=8 Reason=108 
	Ready; T=0.14/0.14 20:36:31                                        

The DMSRXS1419E message is normal
