DISABLE Command

The DISABLE command forces existing users to exit from an active application to import a new version of that application by using the Object Transport utility or by creating a new version of a load module. You can use the DISABLE command against applications that are in either VLS object format or load module format. The DISABLE command must specify the highest level of an application (that program executed by a RUN command). It has no effect if issued for a subprogram. Precede the DISABLE command with the appropriate SELECT SYSTEM command. A prompter panel is provided for the DISABLE command. The prompter is accessed either from a menu selection or by entering the DISABLE command.

This command has the following format:

DISABLE RUN pgm‑name [AT] hh:mm [TOMORROW]
   [[TERMINATION] PANEL pnl‑name VERSION nnn SYSTEM sys‑id]
   [[WARNING] MESSAGE 'msg‑text'                          ]
