Closes the spool queue(s) for the specified logical device,
device name, or all members of a device class. (Native Mode)
Syntax |
 |
SHUTQ { ldev [;SHOW] devclass [;SHOW] devname [;SHOW] @ }
Parameters |
|
- ldev
The logical device number of the device.
- devclass
The device class name of the devices.
- devname
The device name of the device. Note that it is not
possible to have a device class name and a device name that are
the same. If you enter an alphanumeric character string, the command
searches the device class list first, and then the device name list.
- SHOW
The SHOW
parameter displays the current queue state (enabled or unenabled)
of the devices specified with the SHUTQ
command.
- @
The @ parameter globally disables all currently
open spooling queues without closing the spooling queues. Thus when
the spooling queues are globally reenabled with the OPENQ @
command, all spooling queues that were opened before being globally
disabled will again be open.
Refer to the Native Mode Spooler Reference Manual(32650-90166) for more discussion on enabling and disabling
of spooling queues.
Use the @ option without any other parameter. The SHOW
option entered with the @ option returns an error.
Operation Notes |
|
The SHUTQ
command closes the spool queue(s) for a logical device or all members
of a device class configured in the system. The spooler process,
however, does not need to be running for the device. If the spooler
process is running, it is unaffected by shutting the queue.
This command also serves as an option to the STARTSPOOL
and SPOOLER commands,
which are documented in this chapter.
Use |
|
This command may be issued from a session, job, program, or
in BREAK. Pressing Break has
no effect on this command. It may be issued only from the console
unless distributed to users with the ALLOW
or ASSOCIATE
command.
