Introduction to stopping the viewing server, BDCAS, or TDCAS
You can use three different commands to stop a viewing server, BDCAS, or TDCAS. With each method, the viewing server, BDCAS, or TDCAS waits at least 30 seconds before it terminates to allow current users to exit and for the transaction load to be closed down.
Viewing servers, BDCASs, and TDCASs can be stopped using the following methods:
- Abend-AID Viewer SHUTDOWN command
- MVS STOP command
- MVS MODIFY command (refer to Stopping-the-Viewing-Server-BDCAS-or-TDCAS).
