Use the RESET command to:
- Change the service class of work currently in execution.
- Quiesce a problem job or address space.
- Resume a quiesced job or address space.
- Force a subsystem console to be inactive.
- Release the console name ENQ for an inactive EMCS console.
Force an MCS, HMCS or SMCS console out of standby
mode and into the offline state, which allows the console to be removed
by the SETCON DELETE command. See z/OS MVS Planning: Operations for
IEARELCN details.
- Release
storage associated with messages sent to the system console (SYSCONS).
Note: All of the above RESET tasks, except
for the console oriented tasks, cause SMF to create an SMF 90
subtype 30 record to log the reset operation.
Table 1 summarizes the functions that the RESET command provides.
