Directs PEdriver to stop using the specified LAN device. The original (and still supported) way to stop PEdriver on a LAN device is SYS$EXAMPLES:LAVC$STOP_BUS. CAUTION If you use either STOP LAN_DEVICE or SYS$EXAMPLES:LAVC$STOP_ BUS to stop the only connection you have to a cluster, you cause the system to CLUEXIT. Even when you have have another connection using a different cluster port, stopping all LAN devices results in excessive activity. When PEdriver loses access to all of its LAN devices, it makes an effort to restore cluster communications by completely re-initializing itself. After the last LAN device is stopped, the reinitilization produces an error message similar to the following: SCACP> STOP LAN * ;%PEA0, Port is Reinitializing ( 49 Retries Left). Check the Error Log. After the displayed retry count is exceeded, PEdriver permanently goes offline. To disable cluster use of all but 1 LAN device, enter the following command: SCACP> STOP LAN * /EXCLUDE=landevicename All LAN devices except the excluded device are stopped, and PEdriver does not need to be reset. Format STOP LAN_DEVICE landevicename
1 – Parameter
landevicename[,...] Includes specific LAN devices, which you can use wildcards to specify. Use the /EXCLUDE qualifier to exclude LAN devices. Use the SHOW LAN_DEVICE command to display device names.
2 – Qualifier
2.1 /EXCLUDE
/EXCLUDE=(landevicename[,...]) Excludes specific LAN devices, which you can use wildcards to specify.
3 – Example
SCACP> STOP LAN_DEVICE EWA This command stops PEdriver on the LAN device EWA.
