$I PUN(nn) and $I R(nnnnn).PU(m) - Interrupt punch activity
Function
To terminate the punching of the current output group and return the output to the output queue.
Syntax
Parameters
- nn
- The identifier of the local punch (1-99) to interrupt.
- nnnnn
- The identifier of the remote workstation R (1-32767) that is attached to punch m (1-7).
- m
- The identifier of the punch (1-7) that is attached to the remote workstation Rnnnnn (1-32767).
Authority Required
This command requires device authority. The description of the $T RDRnn command explains how to ensure that the authority of the appropriate MVS™ system command group is assigned.
This command requires update security access authority. For a description of assigning command input authority, see z/OS JES2 Initialization and Tuning Guide.
Processing Considerations
- When the output is interrupted, JES2 does not recalculate its selection priority. The original priority value is used.
- When the output group is again selected for processing, the punch resumes at the last JES2 checkpoint.
Scope
Single member. This command will be in effect for this member only. There is no need to have this command issued to all members of the MAS.
Messages
The $HASP170 message displays the status of output processing on the specified punch.
Example
1 $i pun3,r1.pu5
$HASP170 PUN3 INTERRUPTED
Local punch 3 and remote workstation 1 punch 5 stop punching their current output, and JES2 returns the output to the output queue. These punches select the next available output groups for processing.
