The command sends the following message to each station logged on to the application, indicating where the :STO originated:
origin has just Stopped the System
Where, the origin value is a station name or Operator AX.
Client terminal input of transactions is disabled, but active transactions are processed until completed. Client terminals might still transmit Accept messages to a running Report, and any administration command (except :RUN) can be entered.
Each running Report is stopped:
At a Sleep logic command. Glb.Close is set to CLOSE and the Report is restarted to process termination code.
At any point, if it is a Video Report being browsed.
Immediately, if still initiating.
When all Reports are completed, HUB, USER programs, and all copies of the COMSTP program are terminated, and CLOSEDOWN built-in segment method is invoked by the last COMSTP program.
The :STO command has the form:
:STO [DISABLE]
With :STO DISABLE, your window and database are disabled and cannot be started until ENABLE commands have been entered in each case. All stations switch back to their default window.
Note: You are still able to run Standalone Reports from operating system initiation commands or from a WFL.
When the Minimum Copies attribute for the System Supervisor (LSS) or any COMSTP programs is not zero, specify DISABLE if you want to ensure that the application remains offline.
If DISABLE is not specified, both window and database remain enabled.
