Parameters

Keyword Description Choices Notes
OPTION How to end *CNTRLD, *IMMED Optional, Positional 1
DELAY Controlled end delay time 1-999999, 30 Optional, Positional 2

How to end (OPTION)

Specifies whether the mail server framework jobs that are in the system work subsystem (QSYSWRK) end immediately or in a controlled manner.

The possible values are:

*CNTRLD
All mail server framework jobs are ended in a controlled manner. This allows each framework job a chance to complete processing the current mail server framework messages before it ends.
*IMMED
All mail server framework jobs are ended immediately. Any mail server framework messages being processed at the time the job ended are processed when the mail server framework is restarted.

Controlled end delay time (DELAY)

Specifies the amount of time (in seconds) allowed for the mail server framework jobs to complete their processing during a controlled end. This parameter is ignored if OPTION(*IMMED) is specified. If the jobs do not end before the end of the delay time, they are then immediately ended.

The possible values are:

30
A maximum delay time of 30 seconds is allowed before the mail server framework jobs are ended.
delay-time
Specify the maximum amount of delay time in seconds before the jobs are ended. Valid values range from 1 through 999999.
