Securing Your System
Securing your system prepares it and your users for a shutdown. Refer to “Securing the System for Tape
Tasks” in Chapter 5, “Modifying Your System,” for additional information about these steps.
1. If you are not already logged on with System Manager capability and in the PUB group, log on
appropriately now.
2. Lower limits.
:LIMIT 0,0
:WARN@ PLEASE LOG OFF! SYSTEM UPDATE ABOUT TO BEGIN
3. Log users off.
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 of work that
is still in progress. Then, for each job and session still executing, type:
:ABORTJOB #Jnn
:ABORTJOB #Snnn
where:
Jnn the ID number for each job to be aborted.
Snnn the ID number for each session to be aborted.
4. Deactivate NS 3000/iX, if applicable.
:NSCONTROL STOP
:NSCONTROL ABORT
:NETCONTROL STOP
5. Terminate logging processes.
a. Enter the following command to determine if user logging processes are running:
:SHOWLOGSTATUS
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, skip to Step 6.
b. Terminate logging processes as shown below.
:LOG logid,STOP
where logid is the ID number for each logging process to stop.
c. Record the names of the logging processes, if you want to restart them later.
6. Prepare your manually installed products.
a. If you have ALLBASE/SQL, issue starts for each DBEnvironment that you want to migrate before you
back up the system. Refer to the ALLBASE/SQL Database Administration Guide for more
information.
b. If you have ALLBASE/4GL, unload all existing ALLBASE/4GL applications, if you have them on your
system. Refer to the HP ALLBASE/4GL Developer Administration Manual for more information.
