In this panel there is only one field to enter.

Type of Disable
NORMAL (N)
Normal disable processing is started.
  • All program-version pairs are unregistered from TCP/IP for MVS™.
  • All work that has already entered CICS® ONC RPC is allowed to run to completion, and replies are sent to the relevant client.
IMMEDIATE (I)
Immediate disable processing is started.
  • Aliases not yet started do not start at all.
  • CICS programs running under aliases are allowed to end, and then the alias abends. If the CICS program ends normally, and was called using DPL, the changes it makes to recoverable resources are committed. If the CICS program is a local program, the changes it makes to recoverable resources are backed out unless the CICS program takes a syncpoint with EXEC CICS SYNCPOINT.
  • All the program-version pairs are unregistered from TCP/IP for MVS.
  • No replies are sent to clients, so they do not know whether the CICS program has run or not.

Pressing Enter causes the entry you have made to be validated. Pressing Enter a second time begins disable processing. The Current Status is changed to Disabling or Disabled, depending on the progress of disable processing. When disable processing is complete, pressing Enter will change the Current Status to Disabled.

The panel is displayed until you use PF3 or PF12.

On CICS normal shutdown

CICS normal shutdown starts normal disable processing for CICS ONC RPC.

On CICS immediate shutdown

On CICS immediate shutdown, all transactions are terminated. Clients are not informed of the shutdown or its effects. The program-version-protocol 3-tuples that are registered with TCP/IP for MVS might remain registered.
