How to make sure that events are not lost

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,IND=Y).
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 (issue $T MEMB,IND=N).

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).
