Stopping the ZWESVSTC PROC

To stop the Zowe server, the ZWESVSTC PROC needs to be ended. Run the zowe-stop.sh script at the Unix Systems Services command prompt that is in the zowe instance directory used to start the Zowe started task:

cd $ZOWE_INSTANCE_DIR/bin

./zowe-stop.sh

where <ZOWE_INSTANCE_DIR> is the directory where you set the instance directory to.

When you stop ZWESVSTC, you might get the following error message:

IEE842I ZWESVSTC DUPLICATE NAME FOUND- REENTER COMMAND WITH 'A='

This error results when there is more than one started task named ZWESVSTC. To resolve the issue, stop the required ZWESVSTC instance by issuing the following commands:

/C ${ZOWE_PREFIX}${ZOWE_INSTANCE}SV,A=asid

Where ZOWE_PREFIX and ZOWE_INSTANCE are specified in your configuration (and default to ZWE and 1) and you can obtain the asid from the value of A=asid when you issue the following commands:

/D A,${ZOWE_PREFIX}${ZOWE_INSTANCE}SV
