Re: Can System REXX run Sub=MSTR ??

Just to summarize: MODIFY AXR,SR STOPTSO - Prevents TSO=YES execs from running and eliminates the AXRxx address spaces STOP AXR - Stops all System REXX activity i.e. the AXR address space + AXRxx address spaces all terminate Both of these commands wait for in-progress work to complete.

It's part of that generic MVS principle from at least the 1970's, if not earlier, that things that can be shut down cleanly before an IPL should be, to minimize partially completed transactions, partial updates to a collection of related data sets, database updates that haven't yet reached a

As of V2R2, you can issue F AXR,SR STOPTSO to terminate all AXRxx address spaces; this cmd is useful if you're using System REXX to terminate the primary subsystem. Any future AXREXX requests issued with TSO=YES will be rejected. Harris Morgenstern z/OS Storage Management and System

Barbara, P AXR does appear in z/OS System Commands SA38-0666-40 and does show up in my recently downloaded kc4z V2.4. As far as the command taking down AXRxx's, it sounds like it will: The STOP AXR command terminates System REXX in a graceful manner, waiting for active requests to

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

The AXR address space (System REXX) is started with SUB=MSTR. REXX execs that that are started via AXREXX TSO=NO, run in the AXR address space. On the other hand, REXX execs that are started via AXREXX TSO=YES run in a AXRnn address space which is started under the primary subsystem. If
