Closes the spool queue for the specified logical device or all devices in a device class.
SHUTQ {[DEV={ldev }][;SHOW] } {devclass} {devname } { @ }
ldev The logical device number of the spooled device. devclass The device class name of the spooled device. DEVCLASS must begin with a letter and consist of eight or fewer alphanumeric characters. Device classes are treated as a group of related devices. When a device class name is used, the command is applied to all devices that belong to that device class. devname The device name of the spooled device. DEVNAME must begin with a letter and consist of eight or fewer alphanumeric characters. Users should note that it is not possible to have a device class name and a device name which are the same. If you enter an alphanumeric character string, the command will search the device class first, and then the device name list. SHOW The SHOW parameter displays the current queue state (enabled or disabled) of the devices specified with the OPENQ command. @ The "@" parameter is used to globally disable all spooling queues which are currently open. When the spooling queues are globally disabled, this will inhibit the creation of output spoolfiles. NOTE: If the "@" option is used, it is the only parameter allowed. The SHOW option enterered with the @ options will return the following error: CANNOT USE THE 'SHOW' OPTION WITH 'SHUTQ @'. (CIERR 4815)"
SHUTQ closes the spool queue for a logical device, device name, or all devices belonging to a specified device class configured in the system. A spooler process, however, does not need to be running for any device. If a spooler process is running, it is unaffected by shutting the queue. This command also serves as an option to the STARTSPOOL command. This command may be issued from a session, job, in BREAK, or from a program. Pressing [Break] has no effect on this command. It may be issued only from the console, unless distributed to users with the ALLOW or ASSOCIATE command.
