If possible, all jobs currently processing terminate normally.
Otherwise, current activity is suspended, and the system enters a
manual state or a wait state with a code of hexadecimal 80000CCC.
See
z/OS MVS System Codes for more information on wait state code CCC. You might receive
the following message on
an MCS, HMCS or system console:
BLW002I SYSTEM WAIT STATE 'CCC'X — QUIESCE FUNCTION PERFORMED
Note: - If this system is actively using global resource serialization
to share global resources and the global resource serialization complex
is not the same as the sysplex, issue a VARY GRS (*),QUIESCE command
before issuing the QUIESCE command. Issuing a VARY GRS (*),QUIESCE
command before issuing the QUIESCE command prevents the disruption
of the global resource serialization ring.
- Do not issue a SYSTEM RESET after quiescing the system if you
intend to issue a RESTART after the quiesce. Issuing a SYSTEM RESET
will cause the system to enter an enabled wait state.
