How to make sure that events are not lost

About this task

Use one of these methods to ensure that events are not missed between the time HCL Workload Automation for Z is taken down and JES (JES2 commands are given in the example) is taken down:
Method 1
  1. Remove the system being stopped from the JES2 MAS by placing it into independent mode (issue $T MEMB(n),IND=Y, where n is the member number of the LPAR obtained from the $DMEMBER command output).
  2. Allow the jobs currently running on this system to complete.
  3. Stop the tracker (P OPCx).
  4. Stop JES.
  5. Re-IPL.
  6. Restart JES.
  7. Restart the tracker.
  8. Resume normal work by issuing $T MEMB(n),IND=N, where n is the member number of the LPAR obtained from the $DMEMBER command output.
Method 2
  1. Abend JES2 ($PJES2,ABEND).
  2. Stop the tracker (P OPCx).
  3. Re-IPL.
  4. Restart JES. This will be a hot start.
  5. Restart the tracker.
Method 3
  1. Take the tracker down (P OPCx).
  2. Bring it up again under the master scheduler (S OPCx,SUB=MSTR). Remember that a tracker cannot use JES services (SYSOUT data sets, JCC) if it runs under the master scheduler.
  3. Bring down JES.
  4. Take the tracker down (P OPCx).
