Overview
Universal Broker for z/OS executes as a started task.
The UBROKER program utilizes the z/OS UNIX System Services environment.
Start Universal Broker
To start Universal Broker, execute the
START console command:
| Panel |
|---|
START UBROKER[,UPARM='options'] |
Stop Universal Broker
To stop Universal Broker, execute the
STOP console command:
Stop Universal Broker (Failover)
| Panel |
|---|
F <ubroker>,APPL=SHUTDOWN, [ FAILOVER [ ,<sysname> ] | NOFAILOVER ]
|
| When issued against a Secondary agent | This command behaves like the STOP console command. |
| When issued against a Primary agent | This command shuts down the Broker (and agent) while controlling the Sysplex failover behaviour: |
| When issued without the FAILOVER or NOFAILOVER parameter | Failover will behave as configured by the automatic_failover parameter in UAGCFG00. |
| When FAILOVER Is specified | An available Secondary agent will take over as Primary, regardless of how failover is configured. When the optional <sysname> is specified, the agent running on the designated z/OS system will take over as Primary agent regardless of how fail over is configured. |
| When NOFAILOVER Is specified | No Secondary agent will take over as Primary, regardless of how failover is configured. |
| Note |
|---|
|
Behaviour of the STOP console command with failover is identical to this F <ubroker>,APPL=SHUTDOWN command with no other parameters. |
