Disconnecting from the common recall queue

To disconnect a host from the CRQ, use the optional parameter SETSYS COMMONQUEUE(RECALL(DISCONNECT)). When the DISCONNECT command is received, the DFSMShsm host disconnects itself from the CRQ by performing the following actions:
  • Directing all new recall requests to its local queue instead of the CRQ
  • Moving all of its requests currently on the CRQ to its local queue
  • Completing any remote requests that it had previously selected
  • No longer selecting requests from the CRQ
You must wait for the disconnection to complete before attempting to connect to another CRQ. A message indicates when the disconnection is complete.
Note: Disconnecting from the CRQ should be done only on an exception basis.
