Mark, MXI Generation II uses the CALLRTM service (see Auth Assembler Services) to 'kill' address spaces or individual TCBs - I would imagine that other ISV monitors do the same thing.

Young Sent: 20 December 2006 10:40 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Force ,arm vs. Cancel Re: AFAIK -- FORCE ARM seems to be safe. A plain old FORCE with no ARM involved seems to be the dangerous command. Dear Gary Diehl, When using the FORCE command (after CANCEL does not work), the ARM parm is used to Force a NON-CANCELLABLE task. The ARM parameter executes normal task termination routines without causing address space destruction. Would you know of where I might find some discussion (and/or doc) that talks about the OMEGAMON and or TMON KILL command, and how it actually operates? I seem to recall someone telling me (might have been Steve Samson of Candle Corp.) that KILL actually schedules an SRB off the TCB chain. Hope this helps the discussion. THANX, Mark H.
