Products

• OPS/MVS Event Management & Automation

Issue/Introduction

When stopping CA 7 three commands need to be issued to properly end the started task:

  /F CA7stc,/LOGON MASTER
  /F CA7stc,/SHUTDOWN,Z3
  /F CA7stc,/SHUTDOWN,Z3   

 

Environment

Release : 13.5

Component : OPS/MVS

Resolution

Using the SSMCMDS rule to issue multiple command seems to be the solution:

RULE("SSMCMDS &SSM!RESNAME &DESIRED_STATE {MODIFY &JOBNAME,/LOGON MASTER} 5 {MODIFY &JOBNAME,/SHUTDOWN,Z3} 5 {MODIFY &JOBNAME,/SHUTDOWN,Z3}")

If using SSMV3/Policy Manager an action as below can be created:
