Harris,

that's fine if it were *my* REXX that is causing the AXRxx to get started. 
Nobody except the *IBM* Health checker is currently using System REXX in my 
installation. I have no control whatsoever over TSO=YES/NO, as I am guessing 
the TSO=YES is needed for whatever health checker wants to do. So I still 
object to AXRxx address spaces NOT showing up on a D A,L. That is making system 
shutdown unnecessarily complex and hangs up JES2 shutdown every time one of 
these things is kept around.

As for P AXR - will that take down the AXRxx's, too? This command does NOT show 
up in the 2.4 System Commands manual, much less 2.3. Since we live happily 
*without* taking down AXR, will F AXR,STOPTSO do the trick of getting rid of 
AXRxx's? *That* is documented!

Regards, Barbara

Sorry, just saw this.
3270 emulators.
I use IBM PCOMM today, but I have used EXTRA and I have used Host on Demand.
