You can control the MSJOB processes through either of these two utilities:


MSJOBCMD

You must have SM or OP capability to use this utility.

The ‘loopback’ feature of you network interface must be started.  Use “NETCONTROL START;NET=LOOP”

This application is designed to run from a JOB or SESSION on the HP e3000 that is running the Minisoft Client Server listener (MSJOB). The purpose of this utility is to display the current users of MSJOB and to optionally stop the MSJOB.


Options

PARM=0
Display current listeners and connections.
PARM=1
Display current listeners and connections.  If no current connections, then stop the job or listener.
PARM=2
Display current listeners and connections. Stop the job or listener regardless of the users.
PARM=3
Display current listeners and connections.
PARM=4
Start a listener using the INFO parameter. Use a format similar to the MSJOB indirect file.
INFO="5|30007|0|JDBCSRVR.MM.MINISOFT;PRI=DS S"
PARM=5
Kill all processes of a listener, leave the listener active.
INFO=(port number)
Port number to use for above commands.  If not given, then PARM values apply to job.

Details

RUN MSJOBCMD;PARM=0 Will display the current users.

RUN MSJOBCMD;PARM=1 Will display the current users and optionally stop the job if the number of users is zero.

RUN MSJOBCMD;PARM=2 Will display the current users and stop the job regardless of the number of users.

RUN MSJOBCMD;PARM=2;INFO=”30006″ Will display the current users for the listener on port 30006 and stop the it regardless of the number of users.
