EXITOFF: Specifying inactive installation exits
Explanation: EXITOFF(modname,modname, ...) is an optional parameter specifying installation exits inactive in DFSMShsm primary address space. EXITOFF now applies to ABARS exits. For modname, substitute the module name of the installation exit you want to be inactive. See z/OS DFSMS Installation Exits for more information about installation exits.
Valid installation exit module names and their meanings are as follows:
| Module Name | Abbreviation | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| ARCADEXT | AD | Data set deletion exit |
| ARCBDEXT | BD | Data set backup exit |
| ARCBEEXT | BE | Aggregate Backup error exit |
| ARCCBEXT | CB | Control data set backup exit |
| ARCCDEXT | CD | Data set reblock exit |
| ARCCREXT | CR | Aggregate Recovery conflict resolution exit |
| ARCEDEXT | ED | ABARS expiration date setting exit |
| ARCINEXT | IN | Initialization exit |
| ARCMDEXT | MD | Data set migration exit |
| ARCMMEXT | MM | Second level migration data set exit |
| ARCMVEXT | MV | Space management volume exit |
| ARCM2EXT | M2 | Aggregate Backup ML2 bypass exit |
| ARCRDEXT | RD | Data set recall exit |
| ARCRPEXT | RP | Return-priority exit |
| ARCSAEXT | SA | Space management and backup exit |
| ARCSDEXT | SD | Shutdown exit |
| ARCSKEXT | SK | Aggregate Recovery bypass exit |
| ARCTDEXT | TD | Tape data set exit |
| ARCTEEXT | TE | Tape ejected exit |
| ARCTVEXT | TV | Tape volume exit |
SMS relationship: Parameter differs in meaning when applied to SMS-managed or non-SMS-managed DASD volumes or data sets.
SETSYS default: None.
DFSMShsm default: If you do not specify an
installation exit modname on any SETSYS command, the DFSMShsm
default is that installation exits will remain in their current state
from a previous SETSYS command.
Note:
- You can delete installation exits while DFSMShsm is running. If you want to delete installation exits, you must use the EXITOFF parameter to specify them.
- All existing installation exits are supported on the EXITOFF parameter.
- The modnames are not positional. Installation exits not specified remain in their current state.
- If the EXITS parameter and either the EXITOFF or the EXITON parameter both specify the same installation exit on a SETSYS command, the status specified with the EXITOFF or EXITON parameter has precedence over the status specified with the EXITS parameter.
- If the same installation exit is specified in both the EXITOFF and the EXITON parameters on a SETSYS command, DFSMShsm leaves that installation exit inactive.
- The recall exit (ARCRDEXT) and data set deletion exit (ARCADEXT) will not be invoked for SMS-managed data sets.
