Supervisor Operator Commands

The RestartPlus Supervisor responds to the MVS Modify command to control its behavior. The Supervisor commands that can be specified on the modify are described below.

Stopping the Supervisor

STOP

This command causes the Supervisor to quiesce its activity, extract its SMF exit, and end. The Supervisor must always be stopped in this manner.

Example: F UC4SUP,STOP or MODIFY UC4SUP,STOP. Either of these commands, issued at the operator's console, will cause the RestartPlus Supervisor to quiesce and terminate.
