Stops an LU-LU session without stopping the SNA node.

Syntax

   SNACONTROL       STOPSESS;NODE=NodeName;LUNAME=LUName

                      [;TYPE=StopType]

Use

SNACONTROL STOPSESS can be issued from a session, a job, a program, or in break. Pressing BREAK has no effect on this command.

Parameters

NodeName

Conditionally required. The name of the active SNA node the LU-LU session is on. The name can be up to eight alphanumeric characters long; the first character must be alphabetic.

If only one SNA node is active, this parameter is optional: If you do not include it, the specified LU-LU session on the active node is stopped. If more than one node is active, this parameter is required: If you do not include it, an error message is displayed and no LU-LU session is stopped.

LUName

Required. The name of the LU whose session you want to stop. The name can be up to eight alphanumeric characters long; the first character must be alphabetic.

StopType

How SNA Transport is to stop the session:

  • K = (Kill) The session is stopped immediately. To the users of the session, this is like a link failure.

    CAUTION: Data can be lost in a kill shutdown.

  • P = (Protocol) SNA Transport notifies the SNA services that it is stopping the specified LU. Each service interrupts sending and receiving all active data sets for the LU-LU session and tries to stop the specified LU.

  • Q = (Quiesce) The session is stopped in an orderly way. SNA Transport notifies the SNA services that it is stopping the specified LU. Each service completes sending and receiving all active data sets in the LU-LU session. Once the session is stopped, a logging message specifying that the LU-LU session has terminated is generated.

Default: Q

Description

SNACONTROL STOPSESS stops an LU-LU session without stopping the SNA node. Only an LU-LU session can be stopped with this command.

NOTE: SNACONTROL STOPSESS will not terminate a "hung session."

Example

SNACONTROL STOPSESS;NODE=ALPHA;LUNAME=LU1

The LU-LU session for LU1 on node ALPHA is to be stopped in an orderly way (a quiesce). A quiesce is done because no StopType was specified.
