Terminating the SSHCLIENTSUPPORT Library

An administrator can use the following command to terminate the SSHCLIENTSUPPORT library.

R *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/ADMIN("DISABLE NOW")

Example

R *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/ADMIN("DISABLE NOW")
#RUNNING 1196
*SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/ADMIN.: SSH Client is shutting down immediately
#1187\1190 EOT (ADMINISTRATOR) *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/SUPPORT
#1187\1189 EOT (ADMINISTRATOR) 
 (ADMINISTRATOR)SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/MANAGER ON DISK
#ET=0.1 PT=0.0 IO=0.0                                            

Use the following command to query the SSHCLIENT request files before restarting SSHCLIENT:

FILES *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/REQUEST:S		

The information in the *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/REQUEST/= shows the state of each SSH request. If certain non-fatal errors occur prior the completion of an SSH request, the request might be retried in accordance with the values of MAX_RETRY and RETRY_INTERVAL.

After the completion of an SSH request, information pertaining to the success or failure of an SSH request is stored in the *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/REQUEST/= file for DEL_OLDREQ_DAYS days.

Use one of the following commands to view the information on a system-wide basis:

R *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/ADMIN("STATUS")
R *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/ADMIN("STATUS ALL")

Use one of the following commands to view the information on an individual SSH request basis:

R *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT("STATUS <20 DIGIT REQUEST #>") 
R *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT("STATUS <20 DIGIT REQUEST #> DETAILS")
Note: If you remove the *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/REQUEST and *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/REQUEST/= files before starting *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/SUPPORT, all the information pertaining to previous SSH requests are lost.

An administrator might want to remove the SSHCLIENT request files before restarting the SSHCLIENT to avoid retrying requests that previously terminated with non-fatal errors.

An administrator can use the following CANDE command to remove the SSHCLIENT request files before restarting the SSHCLIENT:

REM *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/REQUEST, *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/REQUEST/=

Example

REM *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/REQUEST, *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/REQUEST/=
# *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/REQUEST ON DISK REMOVED               
# 6 FILES IN *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/REQUEST/= REMOVED ON DISK  

See, “Removing *SYSTEM/SSHCLIENT/REQUEST files” at the end of this section for a detailed example of removing SSHCLIENT request files.
