Issue/Introduction

User said that accidentally started SECTRACE and they need to know how to stop this task.



Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : CA ACF2 for z/OS

Resolution

To Stop the SECTRACE
that was accidentally started,

you can issue the ST
DELETE or DISABLE.

 

For example:

 

“ST DEL,ID=ALL”   to delete ALL active SECTRACE

 

Or

 

"ST
DISABLE,ID=ALL"   to disable the SECTRACE

 





















The SECTRACE address space once started will
stay active till the next IPL unless you issue the CANCEL command.  

But leaving it up does not really have any
bad effect as it will not take any cycles unless someone issues another
SECTRACE command.  

Doing a CANCEL does
not effect ACF2 at all as they are totally separate.
