You can enter the UTM command KDCOFF to sign off from the UTM application. This shuts down the connection between the dialog terminal process and the UTM application and terminates the dialog terminal process.
If the dialog terminal process was started automatically by the Unix or Linux system following a successful sign-on (see "Starting the dialog terminal process through Unix and Linux system"), the dialog with the Unix or Linux system is also terminated.
If you sign off at the end of a transaction while a service is being processed, the processing is interrupted. It can be continued when you later sign on to the UTM application again, if the user is generated with RESTART=YES..
KDCOFF BUT
By entering KDCOFF BUT, you can sign off in such a way that the connection between the dialog terminal process and the UTM application is retained. It is needed for a subsequent sign-on, or the sign-on service is started.
Messages
If KDCOFF [BUT] is entered, openUTM responds by outputting one of the following UTM messages:
K019 Sign-off for application example accepted
The user entered KDCOFF or, in an application without user IDs, entered KDCOFF BUT. The terminal is no longer connected to the UTM application.
K018 Sign-off for application example accepted - please sign on
The user entered KDCOFF BUT in an application with user IDs and without a sign-on service. openUTM asks the user to sign on again with a user id. This also applies if the user signed on without the -S switch.
K003 Command KDCOFF is not permitted at this time.
The command is entered after a PEND KP call or blocking call (e.g. PGWT) of the program unit.
