Managing the ReportCenter Java Task › Stop the ReportCenter Java Task

Stop the ReportCenter Java Task

You should stop the ReportCenter Java Task when you perform backups, reorganizations, or other work on the database. This prevents unsuccessful database connection attempts from the ReportCenter Java Task being repeated. Restart the task as soon as the database is functional again.

To stop the ReportCenter Java Task, issue the following command from the MVS system console:

P NMJAVA

This stops the task. You can also set up operations automation software to issue this stop command.

Note: You can issue the OCS JFSTOP command from the ReportCenter Control Region; however, this is not the recommended method.

Occasionally, when it detects an error condition from which it cannot recover, the Java Task may stop itself. Often these are external problems with the DBMS, sockets interface, and so on.
