STOP SVTS

The STOP command stops the CA Vtape address spaces and brings down the subsystem.

If the Backstore Engine has an active subtask with a physical drive allocated, the subtask stops gracefully and the physical drive is released before the SVTSAS.SVT1PT address space is shutdown. If an application job or a started task has a Virtual Device allocated, the shutdown is delayed until the application job or started task completes its use of the Virtual Device and releases it. When the Virtual Device is released, the corresponding SVTSAS.SVT1Vn address space will complete its shutdown.

During the shutdown, the Virtual Devices are automatically varied offline.
