Table 60 lists the environments (DB/DC, DBCTL, and DCCTL) from which the command and keywords can be issued.
Command / Keywords | DB/DC | DBCTL | DCCTL |
---|---|---|---|
/EXIT | X | X | |
CONVERSATION | X | X | |
LINE | X | X | |
NODE | X | X | |
PTERM | X | X | |
USER | X | X |
The /EXIT command ends conversations between users and application programs. The conversation can be either active or in hold status at the time /EXIT is entered. Depending upon the conversational processing options selected for the IMS system, the application program might or might not be notified of the conversation termination.
|Transactions that are queued for processing when |the /EXIT command is issued are discarded. If a transaction is being |processed or was sent to a remote system for processing when /EXIT is issued, the command is still processed; however, the conversation |will be terminated, but the conversational transaction will still |be issued. When the conversational response is received, the Conversational |Abnormal Termination exit (DFSCONE0) is called and the response |message is queued to the response terminal.
The /EXIT command with no keywords can only be used if the conversation is active.
If global resource information is kept in Resource Manager (RM), /EXIT NODE or /EXIT USER terminates the conversation in RM. If global resource information is not kept in RM, /EXIT NODE or /EXIT USER terminates a conversation on the IMS where the /EXIT command is entered or routed to by the OM SPOC.
/EXIT is not valid from an LU 6.2 device or OTMA device. DEALLOCATE the APPC conversation after receiving all output from an iteration. When the /EXIT command specifies only the CONVERSATION keyword, the command can be entered only from the terminal that owns the conversation.
The NODE USER combination applies only to the specified half-session of the ISC parallel session node allocated to USER The half-session must have been stopped and idled. The command must be issued from a terminal or node other than the one in the conversation.
Entry ET:
/EXIT
Response ET:
DFS058I EXIT COMMAND COMPLETED
Explanation: The active and not held conversation associated with the entering terminal is terminated.
Entry ET:
/EXIT
Response ET:
DFS576I EXIT COMPLETED, TRANSACTION DISCARDED
Explanation: /EXIT processing found the conversational transaction enqueued for an application or transmission across an MSC link, but it has not yet been scheduled for processing. The transaction has been discarded.
Entry ET:
/EXIT
Response ET:
DFS577I EXIT COMPLETED, TRANSACTION STILL ACTIVE
Explanation: /EXIT processing found the conversational transaction had been or is in the process of being transmitted across an MSC link.
Entry ET:
/EXIT CONVERSATION 0001
Response ET:
DFS058I EXIT COMMAND COMPLETED
Explanation: The active or held conversation (0001) is terminated if the terminal is in conversation.
Entry ET:
/EXIT CONVERSATION 0001 LINE 10 PTERM 2
Response ET:
DFS058I EXIT COMMAND COMPLETED
Explanation: Used from another PTERM or master terminal when a PTERM in conversation is "locked," waiting for a response. /EXIT CONVERSATION should be used before a /START LINE command that resets all conversations active on the line.
