REFUSE
Disables jobs/sessions and/or data on a designated device.
Syntax
REFUSE[ JOBS,] [ DATA,] ldev
Parameters
JOBS Disables the JOB (or HELLO) command from the designated device.
DATA Disables the DATA command from the designated device.
ldev The logical device number of the device for which JOB (or HELLO) and DATA
commands are refused.
Operation Notes
The REFUSE command prevents a device from automatically recognizing and accepting one
or more of the three commands (JOB, HELLO, and DATA) users execute to introduce jobs or
sessions. The JOBS parameter in the REFUSE command refers to both jobs and sessions. If
neither the JOBS nor DATA parameter is supplied, both JOB (or HELLO) and DATA
commands are refused. To undo the effect of the REFUSE command, use ACCEPT.
Use
This command may be issued from a session, job, program, or in BREAK. Pressing Break
has no effect on this command. It may be executed only from the console unless distributed
to users with the ALLOW or ASSOCIATE command.
Examples
To prevent logical device 35 from recognizing the DATA command, enter:
REFUSE DATA,35
To prevent both jobs and data recognition on logical device 35 enter:
REFUSE 35
