Look in the Getting Started with Linux on System z book, chapter 9.
That may have what you want.

If we are just re-booting we just INIT6 on the Linux guest. I am setting
up something so that when we take everything down for maintenance and
such I want to do it from VM. 

Thank You,

Why not just use cron and issue a shutdown ?

If you use the signal facility the Linux image will shutdown and VM will
wait for it to shutdown prior to completing VM's own shutdown process.

Hi

 

I am trying to write a REXX exec to shutdown my z/Linux guests. I am
having trouble figuring out a couple of things:

 

  'MAKEBUF'                                                            

   RC = 0                                                              

 DO FOREVER;               /* WILL GET MESSAGES UNTIL GUEST DOWN */    

 'WAKEUP (IUCVMSG QUIET'                /* MESSAGE HAS ARRIVED */      

                                                                       

  PARSE PULL MSG                  /*    GET RETURNED MESSAGE*/         

 /* PARSE VAR MSG TYPE F1 F2 MSGID F3 GUEST REST */                    

                                                                       

  IF RC = 6 THEN                                                       

 /*IF RC = 5 & TYPE = '*CP', */                                        

 /*  & (MSGID = 'HCPSIG2113I'| MSGID = 'HCPSIG2112I') THEN */          

    DO                                                                 

     IF FUNCTION = 'SHUTDOWN' THEN        

 

First, I am not seeing the Shutdown message coming back to the BUFFER
(MAKEBUF). I would like to parse the message to make sure it is the
message I am looking for. I did a QUEUED on the BUFFER and there was
nothing on the STACK. Any ideas why or even if this message should/is
not coming back to the BUFFER?

 

Second, After I receive the HCPSIG2112I message that says the guest has
been shutdown, and I check and it has, but instead of dropping into the
code it just sits there in RUNNING and I need to hit the ENTER key to
get going again. Is there something I need or can do to simulate the
ENTER KEY.

 

Note: All of the code is not shown here! 

 

 

                             

Thank You,
