IDMS

CAN IDMS be shutdown in a batch job?  If so, can someone share a batch job example?  Thanks, Mike

Mike,

Yes it can. You can run a job that issues the DCMT SHUTDOWN command. The userid the job runs under needs to have IDMS signon authority and authority to issue the shutdown command.

Something like this:

//<your job card>
//*
//SHUTDOWN EXEC PGM=RHDCUCFB,REGION=2M
//STEPLIB DD DSN=<your IDMS software library>,DISP=SHR
//SYSCTL DD DSN=<your SYSCTL dataset>,DISP=SHR
//SYSLST DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIPT DD *
DCMT SHUTDOWN IMM
Y
BYE
/*

Hope this helps,

Or a batch job that sends a shutdown command to the console …..

Hi, we updated the CA IDMS documentation in the Usage statement to clarify that CA IDMS can be shutdown in a batch job.

Thanks,
