Terminates spooling to the specified logical device number, device name, or device class. The spooling processes associated with the devices are also terminated. Syntax | |
REC REC I32 I32 I32
AIFSPPSTOP (overall_status, spooler_device, finish, q_state, user_id);
|
Parameters | |
- overall_status
record by reference (required) Returns the overall status of the call. A zero indicates a successful call. A negative value indicates an error in the overall call. A positive value indicates a warning. Refer to appendix A for meanings of status values. Record type: status_type (Refer to appendix B.) - spooler_device
record by reference (required) Passes the device name, LDEV number, or device class for which the spooling process is to be terminated. An LDEV number must be converted into an ASCII character string before being passed to this routine. The name should be left-justified and padded with blanks. Array type: device_name_type (Refer to appendix B.)
- finish
32-bit signed integer by value (optional) Passes the finishing strategy for stopping the spooling process.
The valid inputs and their meanings are as follows: - 1
Finish now (default) - 2
Finish at end of copy
Default: 1 - q_state
32-bit signed integer by reference (optional) Passes a value that indicates whether the spooling queue is to remain open or disabled when the spooling process terminates. The default is Shutq for terminating a spooler process. If Openq is specified, it allows users to generate spool files on that device even when the spooling process has been terminated. The valid inputs and their meanings are as follows: - 0
No change to the current q_state of the spooling process - 1
Openq - 2
Shutq (default)
Default: nil - user_id
32-bit signed integer by value (optional) The user ID assigned to a vendor at the time of purchase of the Architected Interface Facility: Operating System product.
If it is not passed, the caller must have previously called
AIFACCESSON. Default: 0
Operation Notes | |
A Shutq is done by default when AIFSPPSTOP is invoked, unless the q_state parameter specifies Openq. AIFSPPSTOP is the programmatic interface for executing the commands STOPSPOOL and SPOOLER dev;STOP. |
