$P LINE(nnnnn) - Stop a line

Function

To stop the RJE or NJE line after it completes its current activity. When the $P is issued on a line, depending on where the work is in the NJE transmission, the $P can cause the job to be put into HELD. You must release the job using the $A command.

Parameters

Specifies the subscript that defines the stopped RJE or NJE lines. The subscript can specify a specific value or a range of values. For information about entering a range of values for this subscript, see Command syntax conventions.

RESTART=(Yes|No,interval)

Specifies whether this line will be restarted if it is drained. The interval is the approximate time (in minutes) between attempted restarts. The valid range for interval is 0 to 1440. An interval value of 0 indicates that the default interval (from NJEDEF CONNECT=) is used.
