FORCE command

The FORCE command forces SVOS to go through activation or deactivation processing for a product. You can also use FORCE to reinitialize the SVOS subsystem tables.

Under normal circumstances, this command should not be required. Use the *SSVT and *SSCVT operands only at the request of BMC Customer Support.

Syntax: FORCE{*SSVT|*SSCVT|productName[START|STOP]}

Synonym: None

The productName operand should be used only when a START or STOP command cannot complete. This unusual condition should occur only when a product has been partially activated. When processing the productName operand, if neither START nor STOP has been requested, SVOS simply marks the product as inactive.

Example

If SVOS had been canceled during SVALLOC initialization, either of the following console commands will force SVOS to restart SVALLOC:

/FORCE SVALLOC,START

or

F SVOS,FORCE SVALLOC,START

At the request of BMC Customer Support, enter either of the following console commands to force SVOS to reinitialize the SSVT for the ETIS subsystem. SVOS uses this subsystem to keep track of the status of BMC products under its control.

/FORCE *SSVT

or

F SVOS,FORCE *SSVT
