RESTART MSGPROC
Authorization
Privilege Class: A, B, G
Purpose
The RESTART MSGPROC command allows a user ID to reload and start a message processor in a CF Service Machine.
If you have Class G privilege only, the message processor that you specify must be currently defined in your I/O configuration. A message processor may be defined in your I/O configuration by either the DEFINE MSGPROC command or the SPECIAL directory statement.
The RESTART MSGPROC command will cause the specified CF Service Machine to be loaded with the Coupling Facility Control Code (Licensed Internal Code) from the service element of the processor. Once the CF Service Machine is loaded, the message processor is restarted and all previous structures within the Coupling Facility will be lost.
Operands
- msgprocid
- specifies the user ID of the CF Service Machine to be restarted.
Usage Notes
- The CF Service Machine's console may be viewed to verify that the restart completed successfully.
- To define a virtual message processor and associated virtual message devices, use the DEFINE MSGPROC command.
- To display information about virtual message processors in your I/O configuration, use the QUERY VIRTUAL MSGPROC command.
- To display information about the virtual message devices within your I/O configuration, use the QUERY VIRTUAL MSGDEVICES command.
- To remove all message facility capability from your virtual machine, use the SET MSGFACIL OFF command.
- To detach a virtual message processor and associated virtual message devices, use the DETACH MSGPROC command.
- If an IPL directory statement or the IPL operand on the XAUTOLOG command was initially used to load the CF Service Machine, then the same IPL statement will be used by the RESTART MSGPROC command when performing the restart. The CF Service Machine will not be loaded from the service element of the processor.
