Usage notes
- START CMDSERV starts the command server and allows it to process commands
in the system-command input queue (SYSTEM.COMMAND.INPUT), mover commands,
and commands using CMDSCOPE.
- If this command is issued through the initialization files or through
the operator console before work is released to the queue manager (that is, before
the command server is started automatically), it overrides any earlier STOP
CMDSERV command and allows the queue manager to start the command server automatically
by putting it into an ENABLED state.
- If this command is issued through the operator console while the command
server is in a STOPPED or DISABLED state, it starts the command server and
allows it to process commands on the system-command input queue, mover commands,
and commands using CMDSCOPE immediately.
- If the command server is in a RUNNING or WAITING state (including the
case when the command is issued through the command server itself), or if
the command server has been stopped automatically because the queue manager
is closing down, no action is taken, the command server remains in its current
state, and an error message is returned to the command originator.
- START CMDSERV can be used to restart the command server after it has been
stopped, either because of a serious error in handling command messages, or
commands using the CMDSCOPE parameter.
