Yes, you can issue the SHUTDOWN or SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE directly to the outstanding console reply or thru the UCF/Batch interface or from a VTAM terminal, basically, anywhere you can talk to IDMS interactively you can issue the command.
The UCF/Batch interface program name has a standard one that is created at installation time, but it was modified here long before I arrived so I simply propagated it forward since there is numerous job streams that execute the program under the name that was created long ago. One thing to keep in mind, you notice that there is no signon statement in the input stream. An implicit signon is performed using the user id executing the job. So, if you secure DCMT and/or the SHUTDOWN function in your configuration, be sure to execute the job with a userid that has the authority to 1) execute DCMT and 2) issue the SHUTDOWN command. Hope this helps.

Thank you Chuck. This has good possibilities. Your JCL has an interesting program name - is there not a standard utility name? While I'm on this track, can the SHUTDOWN IMMED command be issued directly against a known IDMS region name, via console command? Cheers,,,Steve Steven F.

Sent by: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> Why not simply submit a UCF/Batch job with a DCMT SHUTDOWN or DCMT SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE? Remember, the SHUTDOWN command will prompt for confirmation so you need to have a "Y" coded following the DCMT command. //UCFBATCH EXEC PGM=whateveryoucallit //STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=your.idms.loadlib // DD DISP=SHR,DSN=any.other.loadlib //SYSCTL DD DISP=SHR,DSN=your.cv.sysctl.dataset.name //SYSIPT DD * DCMT SHUTDOWN Y /* //SYSLST DD SYSOUT=* The above should get you started. Once you have the job working, you should be able to use your scheduler to submit the job at the appropriate shutdown time of day, or condition, etc. Good Luck.

We don't have IDMS. But we do have some other products with "hang a WTOR" that needs to be replied to in order to shut them down (IMO, poor architecture!). We use CA-OPS/MVS. What we do is look at each outstanding WTOR and look for the proper MSGID to which to reply. The code looks something like: temp = OPSTATUS("R","S","*") /* scan all WTORs */ DO WHILE QUEUED() > 0 PARSE PULL WTOR PARSE PULL LINE2 FROMSYS=WORD(LINE2,4) /* Check that the message is from this z/OS system */ IF FROMSYS<>OPSINFO("SYSNAME") THEN ITERATE PARSE VAR WTOR REPLYNO MSGID . IF MSGID = 'CA-7.574' THEN DO ADDRESS OPER , "R "REPLYNO",STOP" END END END Hopefully this will be of some help, should no one else have an an exact IDMS rule available.
