Modifying Your System

5. Warn, then log users off.
:WARN@ PLEASE LOG OFF! SYSTEM UPDATE ABOUT TO BEGIN
Wait approximately five minutes. Make sure users have saved their work and logged
off, then abort jobs or sessions still executing. Use the SHOWJOB command to determine
session and job numbers. For each job and session still executing (except yours) type:
:ABORTJOB #Jnn
:ABORTJOB #Snnn
where:
J
nn — the ID number for each job to be aborted.
S
nnn — the ID number for each session to be aborted.
6. Deactivate NS 3000/iX, if applicable.
:NSCONTROL STOP
:NSCONTROL ABORT
:NETCONTROL STOP
7. Terminate logging processes.
a. Enter the following command to determine if user logging processes are running:
:SHOWLOGSTATUS
b. If logging processes are running on your system, a message similar to the following
will be displayed:
LOGID CHANGE AUTO USERS STATE CUR REC MAX REC % USED CUR FSET
SHPLOGID YES YES 1 ACTIVE 120 10016 1% 1
ORBLOGID YES YES 9 ACTIVE 3812 10016 38% 1
If no logging processes are running, go to Step 8.
c. Terminate logging processes as shown below.
:LOG logid,STOP
where logid is the ID number for each logging process to be stopped.
Record the names of the logging processes on your checklist, if you want to restart
them later.
8. Prepare additional manually installed products.
a. If you have ALLBASE/SQL already installed on your system, issue starts for each
DBEnvironment before you back up the system. Refer to the ALLBASE/SQL
Database Administration Guide for more information. Briefly, you need to:
• Identify all your ALLBASE/SQL databases, type:
:STORE @.@.@;;FCRANGE=-491/-491;SHOW
• RunISQL.PUB.SYS and issue a STARTDBE command. This ensures that the
DBEnvironment is logically consistent in the event that it has not been accessed
since a system failure occurred.
• RunSQLUTIL.PUB.SYS and issue the STORE command to backup each
