BCOUT: Close down processor

If the processor to be closed down is a router, then, if required, the ARP function must be deactivated separately with the MODIFY-ROUTE-ATTRIBUTES command.

BCOUT for processors

PROCESSOR = <processor-name 1 .. 8>
,OUT = ONLY, ... / ALL
	ONLY, ...
		|		DAC = ONLY / NODE / ALL
,TYPE = QUICK / NORMAL, ...
	NORMAL, ...
		|		W = YES / NO

PROCESSOR=<processor-name 1..8>
Name of the processor

OUT=...
Defines the group of objects to be closed down in addition to the processor.

OUT=ONLY, ...
The operation is performed for the specified processor.

DAC=...
Specifies which objects are also deactivated.

DAC=ONLY / NODE
No additional objects are deactivated.

DAC=ALL
Deactivation takes place for the specified processor as well as for all processors which can be accessed via this processor.

OUT=ALL
The operation is performed for the specified processor, as well as for all processors which can be accessed via this processor.

TYPE=...
Specifies the type of connection shutdown.

TYPE=QUICK
Connection shutdown occurs in the network.

TYPE=NORMAL, ...
Connection shutdown occurs in the network.

W=...
This operand shows whether or not a warning about the termination of the application is displayed. 

W=NO
No warning is displayed.
This option must only be used in “emergencies”, since the relevant applications have no opportunity to terminate under control.

W=YES
A warning is displayed.

Command logging

For reasons of compatibility, the processing acknowledgment is supplied in news BCA0763 if it is positive and in news BCA0762 if it is negative, followed by the message NBR0740. In addition, for positive acknowledgments, the messages BCA085F and BCA0626 may also appear.
A description of the error messages that may be issued during command processing is provided in the table below.
